GERMANY: John William Mueller
« on: Tuesday 14 June 05 11:03 BST (UK) »
I have been researching my husband's ancester John Wlliam Mueller.    He joined the Metropolitan Police in June 1878 and died in September 1912.   I can track him back to the 1861 census which shows him as a (Naturalized British Subject) born in Germany.   I have tried Kew but can find no trace of his naturalisation papers - can anyone suggest where else I can look to find his town of birth in Germany?

Hi Gwendolen,

Welcome to RootsChat !!!

I've split your topic off from the Naturalisation thread as it is a more speceific query, and you will probably get more help here.

Do you know when he anglicized his name ?  Have you looked at Kew for all variations, too ??
e.g.  Johannes, Johann, Hanns Hannes for John
Wilhelm for William
Maybe he was known as Wilhelm Mueller ??

Is his place of birth given on any other census ?
Can you access the Met. Police records, maybe someone knows where to look
Any other certificates ? His marriage cert. might say more

Have a look too, in "Immigrants Resources"
I have posted a book review "Immigration and Aliens", and there is also a link to Naturalisation Notices in the Gazette

Good luck, and if you find anything, please, please, let us know where you found it  Smiley
