Milton was a staunch Democrat. And worked as a school teacher, postmaster, farmer,and road builder.

He had seven children: Coy,Hallie,Hazel,Frank,Oris,Doris,and Dora. Milton was a friend of all he met--the rich, the poor, the black, the white and he would invite them to share his porch swing much to the disgust of his wife.

Typically Dutch, he believed the barn was where the money was made, so the house was unimportant. Also typically Dutch, he was short and stocky: his wife of Scotch-Irish descent was tall and big-boned.
