      Fredrich Muhm, wife Martha Elizabeth Hedderich, married in Germany, sailed on the Brig. Tommy and arrived in NY on 3 Aug 1839. During the voyage Martha died in child birth and they were buried at sea. Frederich arrived in NY with John, Fred, Jerry, Elisabeth, Christoph, and Anna Katherina. They moved inland to Montgomery County, NY in the Canajoharie and Palatine area of the Mohawk river. Frederich then farmed the children out until he could get himself established. In Canajoharie, on 14 Sep 1840, he filed his intend to become a US citizen. On Sept 10, 1844 he filed his final application, stating that he had been a resident of Palatine, NY for two years. In October, 1845 he purchased 12 acres of land near Palatine for $500, and about that time he married Sophia Elizabeth Strassmann.
