From a WWI memorial book published in Brockton, MA (USA), 1919, honoring the citizens of the city who died in the Great War (supplied by great grandson Richard Miller):
Private Louis Steve Miller of the East Ontario Regt. of Infantry, C.E.F., was born about 1888 in Rockland, Mass., the son of Louis F. and Julia Agnes (Hyland) Miller, now of 827 Main St., Brockton.
