Miller
Coat of Arms
MILLER:
(1) (British): "Miller," (Latin), also found as Anglicized version of German or other forms.
Name reflecting the occupation or status of the ancestor.

(2) (English): one of the most common and ancient occupational name designating one who operated a mill often on behalf of the lord; millers as a group were not popular, although many were among the most considerable men of the village; in some cases the name indicated mere residence near the mill; sometimes the name developed as translation from other European languages of the surnames with the same meaning, e.g. French MEUNIER, German MUELLER.
