Johann Mühl, a farmer, his wife Susanna, and children (Johann, age 20; Otto, age 10; Elisabeth, age 3; Elisabeth, age 1½) arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 12 September 1766 aboard an English frigate under the command of Skipper Adam Beerfeier.
Just Muhl, his wife Susanna, and sons (Johann, age 20; Otto, age 10¼) are recorded on a list of colonists being transported from St. Petersburg to Saratov in 1767.
Widower Johann Just Mull, a farmer, and his sons (Johannes, age 21; Reinhardt, age 14) are recorded on an appendix to the 1767 census of Boisroux in Household No. 51.
It is not known in which colony they settled.
The Oranienbaum passenger list records that Just Muhl came from the German region of Darmstadt. The 1767 census records that Johann Just Mull came from the German village of Irentehausen [?].
There are no known surviving male lines of this Mühl family among the Volga German colonies.
