Dear Anna Marie, There is some information on a Nicholaus Miller family in Dr. John Schlenker's article "Henn Mer Der Wendel Muller G'Funne" (Have We Found Wendel Miller?) in the August 1992 issue of the "Rowan County Register". While the dates do not agree with what you have, it may be of interest. Johan Nicholaus Muller was born Feb 6, 1729 in Dorrenbach, Nassau-Saarbrucken, Germany, the son of Johann Michael Muller, born Mar 6, 1696. This Nicholaus was the brother of the Wendel Muller in Rowan County. Nicholaus married Maria Catharine Waldburn in Berks County, PA Apr 9, 1751. Children born there (Lutheran Church Records) weree Michael (1752), Christina (1753), Catherina Elisabetha (1755), Maria Margaretha (1757) and Christian (1759). Nicholaus is last mentioned in Church records there in 1764. A Nicholaus Miller first appears in Rowan County on 1778 tax list together with Wendel Miller, Michael Miller, and other families having roots in Berks County, PA. No evidence is given, though, associating the NC Nicholas Miller with the one in Berks County, PA. It is interesting, though, that Nicholaus Miller purchased land in Rowan County from Wendel Miller on May 4, 1788.
