Sir Thomas Miller, 6th Baronet

Sir Thomas Combe Miller, 6th Baronet (1781–29 June 1864), was an English clergyman and landowner. He was educated at St John's College, Cambridge.

The second but eldest surviving son of Sir Thomas Miller, 5th Baronet, Miller became a Church of England priest and Vicar of Froyle, Hampshire, in 1811. He was largely responsible for the rebuilding of the nave of the parish church in 1812. He had an elder brother, John Miller, who died in 1804, so in 1816 he inherited the family seat, Froyle Place, becoming both Vicar and Lord of the manor of Froyle. For many years he had a curate named Aubutin who took care of the stained glass in the church.

On 24 February 1820, when an election for the Hampshire county constituency was approaching, Miller wrote to George Purefoy-Jervoise, a successful candidate, to say that he would be away on polling day but would use his influence among his tenants to secure votes for Jervoise.

On 5 May 1824, Miller married Martha, daughter of the Rev. John Holmes. They had five sons, Sir Charles Hayes Miller, 7th Baronet (1829–1868), Sir Henry John Miller (born 1830), who became Speaker of the New Zealand Legislative Council, Major Thomas Edmund Miller (born 1832), George Miller CB (born 1833), Assistant Secretary in the Education Department, and Richard Combe Miller JP DL (born 1841); and three daughters, Marianne, Frances Margaret, and Georgina Emily.
