James H and his mother Martha were named admin of Henry's estate. There was a big dispute between James H Miller and his mother & other children. But all children sided with Breazeale and his mother and James H Miller was removed. They were accusing James H of dishonesty in monies returned by sales & there were property disputes. In the end after all court appearances James H was not the one that was doing wrong. It was his brother-in-law Breazeale who was decieving Martha and the others. This is what I precieved from them.
