Miller FamilyPotestas ex Honore | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
HistoryThe Miller family is the quintessential faded small town royalty. They were the family which got the contract which began the mill which caused the town of Tamarack Falls to come into existence in the first place, but with the lumber industry lessened for ecological concerns, these days, the family is more known for hard work and their largely uncontested grasp on road maintenance contracts and hardware. They have more money than they need, thanks to investing well, but while the family isn't poor, it isn't rolling in dough, either. Children can get help going to community colleges, and there is enough that when machinery breaks down, it isn't a disaster to replace it. Throughout their 'reign' the family has prided itself on good old fashioned values, conservative politics and, occasionally, downright stodgy attitudes. Change comes slowly, and is often a matter of metaphorically dragging a given member into this century kicking and screaming. Practical as they are, when a "new" idea becomes the norm, they will begrudgingly accept it, but no one would call them innovators. While there are still disagreements in the older generations over whether their granddaughters should be allowed to wear trousers instead of skirts at Sunday services, no one can disagree about the family's firm loyalty to the land and everyone living in the Tam's high valley. The family has many branches, and many Millers have left the area to make their fortunes in the larger world with varying degrees of success, but the core is here.

It's like having an embarrassing uncle who farts at fancy dinner parties; you don't talk about it, and you do your best to keep other people from talking about it all too. They know it's out there, and there have been the occasional Miller participants in such things, but by and large, family doesn't want to know what family is getting up to with chickens or salt circles on the full moon.
