Shortly before her death I called her by phone from Germany. I asked her about my Muellers, especially about Albert J Mueller, a cousin of my father Sebastian. She told me that she did not know nothing about him and that her surname always had been Christenberry. So I thought that she was not my second cousin of first degree, but she is. The knowledge about that I got only in june 2013. I am sad that we did not know about the relationship when she was still alive. She must have been a very interesting woman.
