The Müller/Miller Family

The Müllers and Millers are families present in the USA, UK and Germany.
== 11th to 15th centuries ==
The Müllers can be traced back to Bavaria, Germany. The Holy Roman Empire, Friedrich, was a Müller. Despite this high position in society, the Müllers were not able to continue thriving at the top and would mostly be middle class mill owners. There are also known to be Müllers from Württemberg.
== 15th to 18th centuries ==
In the 1400s, England and France were fighting each other in the 100 Years War. Müllers in Bavaria were closely following the conflict, which they learned about from travelling merchants. Some Müllers had went to fight on both sides as mercenaries. After the Battle of Agincourt in 1415, where the French Army was catastrophically defeated by the vastly inferior English army, many Müllers decided to emigrate to England as they saw the success of England as an opportunity to settle there and start a new successful life. The Müllers who emigrated would be known as Millers as they would still have the same careers. The decision was proven to be hasty as England would later lose the war, but regardless the Millers were able to find success in England and integrated into the culture completely.
During the Protestant Reformation, the Müllers were split. Those in Württemberg were especially divided, while those in Bavaria mostly stayed Catholic. When England split from the Catholic Church, The Millers were divided as well. From 1642-1651, England would be at civil war. The Millers fought on both sides. The Catholic Royalist Millers were basically wiped out, while the Protestant Parliamentarian Millers became very successful as they were said to have fought bravely in battles. Many Millers on the Parliamentarian side were allowed to become officers and they were rewarded with land once the war was over.
In 1707, the Acts of Union which united England and Scotland were passed. Many prominent Millers would emigrate to Scotland at this time with the goal of starting a new life.
== The New World ==
Many Millers would move to British America in the 17th and 18th centuries. The son of a Scottish Miller, born in Virginia in 1721, would be a British officer in the 7 years war and later become a general fighting on the side of the Patriots in the American War for Independence. His grandson would be Bob Miller whose father had moved to Louisiana.
== 19th Century ==
In this time, Bob Miller would be a General for the Confederates in the American Civil War. His son would be outlaw and businessman Jim miller.
Meanwhile, Friedrich Eduard Johannes Müller would emigrate to America, change his name to Miller and found the Miller Brewing Company.
== 20th/21st Centuries ==
Millers and Müllers would fight in WW1 and WW2, while Millers would fight in Vietnam and the War in Afghanistan. Jim Miller Jr. would also be a prolific criminal and business man.
