    Biography:
    According to a genealogy done by his great great grandson August Leberegt Statius Muller, Franciscus Muller name was von Statius. He was supposed to be the infant son in a royal family living in a castle in Oost-Friesland near Esens in what is now part of Germany and born about 1500. He was reportedly the only survivor in his family of a great flood. He was found asleep in his cradle by a local miller who raised him. To honor the miller von Statius changed his name to Statius Muller.
    No one knows where this story came from but it is not true. Instead, Franciscus Muller was a Lutheran pastor who followed in the footsteps of his father in [COLOR:31,73,125,255,255,255]Börry[:COLOR], Germany.
