The blue dots on this map show the German origins of the Muellers (Altleiningen-Honingen), Schreiners (Wattenheim), and the Kellers (Bayreuth). A closer map of where Altleiningen is (the blue dot near the center), just west of Mannheim. A really close-up of Altleiningen, and the "suburb" Honingen, which is where Johannes and Maria Eva lived. Their house and mill apparently was a gift from his father (Johan Jakob Mueller) when they married (circa 1823). The small region of villages around Altleiningen, including the oldest site, Rodenbach. A satellite view of the villages around Altleiningen, today.
