Johann Müller, a farmer, his wife Anna, and sons (Konrad, age 10; Heinrich, age 5) arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 12 September 1766 aboard an English frigate under the command of Skipper Adam Beerfeier.
Johannes Müller, his wife Catharina, and son Conrad (age 10¼) are recorded on a list of colonists being transported from St. Petersburg to Saratov in 1767 along with a note that father Johannes died in route.
It is not known in which colony this Müller family settled.
The Oranienbaum passenger list records that Johann Müller came from the German region of Darmstadt.
There are no known surviving male lines of this Müller family among the Volga German colonies.
