Bio
Cynthia "Cindy" Miller has published two books on her family: (1) "Preacher's Son, Soldier; A Family Tragedy" and (2) "Our Sydnor and King Families: From Whence We Came." She has 40 plus years of publishing experience; she keeps current with the latest tools of the trade, such as InDesign, Microsoft Publisher, Front Page, and PhotoShop. She is experienced with web page design and public relations, as well. Prior to her retirement from civil service in 2002, she wrote and edited numerous technical reports for the Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division and the Joint Warfare Analysis Center, Dahlgren, Virginia. She served as Editor, Navy Technology Transfer Fact Sheet, and various other newsletters. She is also a retired technical writer for Northrop Grumman Defense Mission Systems. She was co-editor of the book Dahlgren, published in 1977. She serves as a writer and historian for Shiloh Baptist Church in King George County, Virginia. She wrote and published the book, The First 150 Years: A History of Shiloh Baptist Church from 1856 to 2006. She published "Preacher's Son, Soldier; A Family Tragedy," which is a book written not to glorify the North or the South during the divisive Civil War but simply to reach an understanding of why John Arnold Edwards, the author's great-great grandfather, served in the Confederate Army, specifically Company E, 15th Virginia Cavalry. He was born in Pennsylvania and grew up in Methodist parsonages throughout Pennsylvania, Baltimore and Washington, D.C. He was the second of nine children of Rev. Dr. William Balthrop Edwards and Elizabeth Alexander Sommerville Edwards. William Balthrop was born in in King George County, Virginia, and was a Methodist minister for 57 years, under appointment to the Baltimore Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church. The book is available at Amazon.com or go to http://thecowgirl.website to read about it. In 2023, she published a book about her father's side of the family called "Our Sydnor and King Families: From Whence We Came." Cindy holds a bachelor's degree in English Literature from the University of Mary Washington.
