Silent City 2011: Emmalee Baker as Laura B. Miller 2011-10-25 - Columbia City Cemetery, 315 Campbellsville Street, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. Emmalee Baker gave a tremendous performance in her first appearance in a Silent City production, portraying Laura B. Miller. Emmalee writes this about her ghost, "She was born into a prominent family of Adair County. Her father was J.H. Miller and her mother was Louisa F. Robinson-Miller. Together they had eight children (including Laura). J.H. was a keeper of dry goods in the local general store and Louisa was a homemaker. Laura's brother, Nathaniel, was a bank president at the first branch of the First National Bank here in Columbia. The Miller family played a big role in the Columbia Church of Christ. Laura was born on March 21, 1865, a year after the end of the Civil War. In April of 1884, an epidemic of cholera was traveling throughout the community and Laura was infected. She died on the 17th of April, 1884, when she was only 19 years old. She was never married and had no children." -EMMALEE BAKER Read More... | Permalink | Comments?
