He learned the trade of tanner at Newburg, New York, and in 1820 came to Middletown, Orange County, New York, where he practiced his trade for some time, and afterwards established himself as a tanner ans currier, in which business he continued until 1845, when he sold out his business interests and purchased a farm two miles outside of Middletown. Here he lived until 1854, when he returned to Middletown, where he spent the remainder of his life, retired. He was a Free Mason.

He is attorney for a number of banks and corporations and has founded a very exclusive practice. For years he has been engaged in the collecting of rare, choice, and valuable books, and has undoubtedly the most wonderful collection in that part of the country, many of his copies being not only first editions but in many cases the only copies now in existence.

Page 811

MULLER. This old German name, in the original Mueller, signifying miller, is now prominently identified with life in New York City, and other sections of the State.

(I) the first of whom knowledge is now obtainable was Adam Mueller, who resided in Lambrecht, Bavaria, Germany, where he was a cloth manufacturer. He married Philippina, daughter of jacob Weiss, who was master of weights and measures, appointed by the Grand Duke of Hesse, about 1780.

(II) Johann (John), son of Adam Mueller, came to the United States in 1858, with his wife and three sons. The wife died within six months after the arrival. He was an importer of cloth and wines in New York, and was a successful business man. Children: 1. Adam, married Julia, daughter of Charles Fessler, a New York builder, and they had children; i. Charles, ii. Flora, now living in New York. 2. Adolph, born 1852, married Katherine, daughter of John Seyboldt, a pearl manufacturer of New York City, and had five children: i. Lizetta, ii. John, iii. Frederick, iv. Mathilda, v. Katherine. 3. Rudolph Jacob, of whom further. 4. John, married Louise Ganzler, of New York. 5. Theodore, died in childhood, in Worms. 6. Robert, died in childhood, in Worms.

(III) Rudolph jacob Muller, son of Johann (John) Mueller, has adopted the English spelling and pronounces the name Muller. He was born July 23, 1854, at Worms, and was about four years of age when he came with his father to the United States. he was graduated from Lispenard's French Institute at Fort Washington, New York, made a special study of languages, and speaks Latin, French, German and Spanish in addition to English. He is a careful business man whose time is largely taken up by the care of his large estate in and about New York City. A shrewd speculator, never a plunger, he is providing for his family and posterity. While reared and confirmed in the Lutheran Church, he now affiliates with his family with St. Thomas' Protestant Episcopal Church of New York City. After leaving school he was placed in charge of his father's estate, which was ultimately divided among the three sons. He maintains a summer house at Monticello, Sullivan County, New York, where he built a castle which is copied in detail from a castle in the Schwarzwald (black forest) of Germany.

He married, February 26, 1893, in New York, Elise Marie, daughter of Henry and Rosa (Hauser) Worth, of New York City (see Worth III). Mr. and Mrs. Muller have two daughters: 1. Alma, born August 4, 1895, educated at the Garden City Cathedral, Long Island, and in Italy and Germany, and is now a student at the Gardner School of New York City and speaks six languages. 2. Phillipina, born December 7, 1900, in New York City; had private tutors and is now a student at the Gardner School.

(The Worth Line.)

In its original German form this name was spelled Wirth, but with one exception all the descendants of the family herein traced have adopted the spelling which accords with the usual English pronunciation of the name, Worth. Among the descendants have been some of the most distinguished citizens of the state of New York, and many are now living in and about New York City. Henry Wirth, of New York, now deceased, was the only one who retained the original spelling of the name.

(I) Heinrich Jacob Worth, a blacksmith, resided at Albig, near Meinz, Germany, where he died in 1842. He married, in 1802, in Momenheim, Germany, Christina Maria, daughter of Johann Dietrich Bitz, who survived him and came to the United States with their three children about 1850. All the children were educated in this country: 1. Erhart, born 1829, married, in 1850, Margaret Schumacher and resides in New York; she was

Page 812

born in Germany and married Mr. Worth in this country; four of their seven children are now living. 2. Marie, born 1832, married William Schwartz, and resided in Newport, Rhode Island, where she died December 21, 1888; two of their four children are living. 3. Henry, of whom further.

(II) Henry, second son of Heinrich Jacob and Christina Maria (Bitz) Worth, was born September 4, 1836, in Albig, and was about fourteen years of age when he came with his mother to this country. He was educated in the public schools, and became a dealer in paint and builders; supplies, in which business he achieved considerable success. His profits were invested in real estate which has largely appreciated in value, and provided liberally for his descendants. He married Rosa, daughter of George and Margaret Hauser, of New York, and they had ten children, of whom four are now living, viz.: 1. Elise Marie, of whom further. 2. Charles James, residing in New York, manager of his mother's estate. 3. Jacob Holm, an electrical engineer of New York City. 4. Rosa, unmarried, resides in New York.

(III) Elise Marie, eldest surviving child of Henry and Rosa (Hauser) Worth, was born in New York City. She was very delicate in childhood. She was educated by private tutors and at Heidenfeld's and Meisner institutes in New York City, and by careful training became quite athletic. When about eighteen years of age she took a course in law, giving special attention to real estate law, in order to be able to care for her large estate. She passed the examination in the woman's law class at New York University and graduated in law in 1903. She speaks several languages, and is a valued member of New York society, taking an especial interest in charitable work and also in the cause of Woman Suffrage. She is a member of eleven charitable societies, besides various women's clubs, and was a delegate to the National Suggragette Association, which met in Philadelphia in November, 1912. She has made several trips to Europe and is an interesting conversationalist. At Monticello, New York, her summer house, she exercises considerable influence in political mattes, being now allied with the Progressive party. She was married in 1893 to Rudolph J. Muller, of New York City (see Muller III).

(I) Erhart, brother of Heinrich J. Worth, was born in Germany. He was a baker Albig. He married, February 28, 1826, in Albig, Magdelena, daughter of George Wilhelm Bits, a brother of Johann Dietrich Bits, previously mentioned, born April 15, 1806, in Momenheim, Germany. About 1842 they came to the United States and resided in New York, where he followed his occupation for a short time, and died in 1844. Soon afterward his widow removed to Williamsburg in the eastern district of Brooklyn, where she built a house which is still standing. Children; 1. Christina. 2. Elise Marie. 3. Jacob Theodore. 4. Ludwig (known as Louis and the only one now living, 5. Peter. 6. Philip.

(II) Jacob Theodore, eldest son of Erhart and Magdalena (Bits) Worth, was born May 1, 1838, in Germany, and was four years of age when he came with his parents to this country. He was largely self-educated. From childhood he was identified with the growth and developments of Brooklyn, and he became one of the most distinguished citizens in the public life of that city. he was a self-made man in the strictest meaning of a somewhat hackneyed term, and achieved marked political success. He possessed the elements of a successful and forceful leader and was a dominant factor in the politics of the community in which he lived. He was left an orphan at the age of six years and was forced to take up some occupation to support himself. Though lacking a finished education, there were few men in politics in the state who could present an argument more clearly or forcefully. He espoused the principles of the Republican Party and none was more earnest or consistent in their support than he. At the age of twenty-four he was elected a member of the State Assembly, was re-elected in 1864-65. He was subsequently returned to the assembly in 1867-72-73-74-75-77. He was elected to the State Senate in 1885 and re-elected in 1887. He was a delegate to the national Republican convention which nominated Rutherford B. Hayes for president, and was one of the presidential electors chosen in the State of New York in that year. He had previously been an elector on the ticket which chose Ulysses S. Grant for president in 1868; and was also a delegate to the National convention which nominated James A. Garfield. He was appointed United States as-

Page 813

sessor for a term of four years, but resigned in 1874. He served as public works commissioner in Brooklyn, and was fire commissioner in 1880-81. He was five years an election commissioner and served two years as clerk of King's County. In the republican state convention of 1896, he placed in nomination for Governor Frank S. Black, whose election followed. Mr. Worth became the leader of the Republican organization in Kings county in 1893, at which time the party was re-organized. It was against the wishes of Senator Platt that Frank S. Black was placed in nomination for governor, and it was by a narrow margin that Senator Platt was able to retain his control of the state organization in the following year. Soon after this failing health compelled Mr. Worth to retire from the strenuous activities of political life, and he died at Hot springs, Arkansas, February 21, 1908. Following his death both houses of the legislature adjourned out of respect to his memory and he was highly eulogized by various members of both bodies. He was characterized as a man of broad and liberal mind, of high integrity and devotion to his principles and the interests of his constituency. Senator M'Carren, in reviewing Mr. Worth's career, said:

"I have known Mr. Worth since a boy and am familiar with his political career. He was endowed with exceptional natural ability and would have made his mark in any direction in which he saw fit to engage. With a classical education he would have been a most distinguished citizen in any walk of life. His capacity for judging character and divining motives was exceedingly rare. He was particularly noted for his manly characteristics. He abhorred everything that smacked of meanness or lack of courage and fairness. He certainly was for many years one of the most conspicuous figures in Brooklyn."

Mr. Worth married, in 1861, Theresa Morgan, and had five children, of whom only one is living, viz.: 1. Lewis Raymond, born 1872, for four years a city magistrate. At his first appointment as police justice he was the youngest man to hold that position in Brooklyn. He married, in 1893, at St. Anthony's church, East Dulwich, London, Jessie Keyes.

KIDD. Kidd, as a surname, is evidently analogous in its origin and use to other surnames like Lamb, Colt, etc. There are various suppositions as to how names of this character came to be applied and to be made hereditary. The most plausible one, and perhaps the most likely of all, is that they were first employed as soubriquets or nicknames, to express some characteristic s of those to whom they were applied, finally becoming permanent as surnames or patronymics. This was quite probably the origin of the surname Kid or Kidd in most cases. The name though nor found very frequently is known in various parts of the British Isles. The Irish family of the name, from which the family here dealt with has come, intermarried, according to O'Hart, with the Bramstons and the Dawsons. Mary, granddaughter of Richard Dawson, who under the "Acts of Settlement and Explanation" (1661-1665) obtained a grant of confiscated land in Ireland, married Benjamin Kidd of London, who there upon settled in Ireland.

(i) Alexander Kidd, the immigrant ancestor of the Kidd family in America here dealt with, was born in Ireland about the year 1712, and died in Montgomery, Orange County, New York. He came to this country and became proprietor of a large tract of land in Orange County, during the year 1736, a portion of which is now embraced in the estate of the present representative of the family in Montgomery, Orange County, New York. This tract of land was known as Kiddtown, and the old schoolhouse, built where the road crossed the old Walden wagon road southeast of the village, was long called the Kiddtown Academy. Alexander Kidd married Jane Calderwood. Children: 1. Robert, mentioned below. 2. Alexander. 3. James. 4. Annie, and 5. Hannah.
