Mueller Family Genealogy


Mueller
   The Mueller surname was first found in Southern Germany, where they were established in the Middle Ages. It's derived from the German (Müller) and Jewish (Ashkenazic): an occupational name for a miller; Middle High German müller, German Müller.
   In Germany, Müller (or Mueller) is the most frequent of all surnames; in the U.S. it is often changed to Miller. Spelling variations include: Mueller, Muller, Mueler, Muler, Miller, Moeller, Muellner, Milner, Molner and many more.
   The family Coat of Arms features a gold shield bearing a Catherine wheel. The family motto is: "Virtute ingenioque valemus."
   Our lineage to the Mueller family can be traced to CATHERINA MUELLER (1644 - 1736). She married SAMUEL KUHN, who was born in 1653 in Huttengesab, Germany, and came to America in 1710 with the Haus family and other German Palatines.
   According to the Kohn-COONS Families of Eastern New York, published in 1937, "Catharine, his widow, lived many years longer and was last mentioned in February 1736 as a baptismal sponsor with her son Veltin and wife, for a child of Veltin's daughter."
   They had the following kids:

In 1711, he was one of the Palatine soldiers from Annsberg Camp near the present village of Germantown, Columbia county, New York. He had a son, J. Marcus, born July 30, 1714. When the census of about 1716 was taken, he had a family of 5 children at home with him. In August, 1724, Samuel Jr. was among those Palatines who chose to remain in Livingston Manor, and accepted a farm there from the 6,000 acres in the Town of Germantown. This farm had probably already been occupied by some member of the family for 10 or 11 years.
