Miller (left) also has an unknown first name. He was from Europe and had only been in the United States for a short amount of time before joining the H.L. Hunley crew. Frank Collins (right) was born in Virginia and was the largest crewman on board the Hunley. The National Geographic Expeditions Council helped fund the raising of the Hunley and the analysis of the materials found inside.
