Albert S Miller: Counterfeiting

Albert S Miller was born in Germany about 1883.

Was caught by his landlady counterfeiting coins.

He was a actor along with a lady who was called his sister, but I think she was his wife he came to America by himself in 1909 If I found the right record. Miller isn't an easy name to trace. 

He was arrested and convicted age 27 yrs old

Inmate #7262 Leavenworth

Crime: Counterfeiting

Rec: 14 Nov 1910

Term: 14 months $100 Fine

Discharged: 30 Oct 1911

FBI #912232 C

These records state he has a wife and boy child. They also say his sister is Mrs. Helen T Miller, I believe her to be his wife.

He was a very good looking gentleman, I tried to find out more about his acting career and that of Helen's but to no avail there is no records. He also states in his prison records he is a nurse.

He may have died in 1963 in Pittsburgh, PA
