Hello Catt I found the trail of a Hulda Muller b Prussia 1852 through a couple of birth records for children in Toronto in1891 & 1892. She married a Henry Wilson in Ottawa in 1872. However the marriage registration lists her father as Frederick. The 1901 census in Toronto (husband shown as Andrew Wilson) gives Hulda's immigration year as 1870. One of the witnesses for the wedding was Edward Muller. There is one household in Ottawa in 1871 having both Edward and Hulda but the parents are given as Ferdinand and Henrietta Miller. There is also a daughter Emma in the household. The sister Emma's marriage registration in Carleton Co Ont 1874 shows H. Wilson as a witness and gives her birthplace in Prussia. The mother's name is given as Caroline Freiwall. Hulda Wilson died in Toronto in 1930 but parents' names not given other than Miller. These families fit the locations in your story but not the first name of the parents. Maybe there are German naming practices with several first names that would explain. Henrietta Miller is still alive in 1911 and with her daughter Emma in Toronto. Her immigration year is 1870. There is a passenger record for Henrietta, HUlda and Emma in 1870 into New York on ship Shakespeare from Hamburg. It could be the men arrived in North America earlier. The following records should help you find more.

It will go online probably Thursday this week and will provide a workaround for the problem. Have you spotted the problem yet? Every index result shows the SAME MOTHER for both bride and groom. You must check the image for accurate information on parents. No image? That's what my blog post will walk through, how to deal with no images....
