Mueller Genealogy
The Next Branch
Introduction
Welcome to my Genealogy Home Page. I have been compiling data on my family for the last ten years. Within these pages you will find my research along with helpful resources, links and tips to help your own research. I have tried to qualify my data with several sources, but in the rare instance you have found a discrepancy please inform me. I would like to discuss your finds and together we can find the truth. I have tried not to limit my research in just one family line, but I have had more success in more lines than others.
My lineage basically stems from Germany and the surrounding countries, all of who immigrated here mostly in the mid-1800 and settling in the Cook County part of Illinois. Cook County is located in the Northeast section of Illinois. Chicago is part of Cook County and has been changing and evolving county boundaries through most of the late eight-teen hundreds and early Nine-teen hundreds, to were it has settled as we know it today. (please see the map section to view the county evolution)
