George Müller cared for 10,000 orphaned children in Bristol during the Victorian era. He was a man of great faith, never making appeals for money, but simply praying to God for all that was needed. During his lifetime he received £1,500,000 in money and gifts in kind. At present day prices, this would be over £100m.
Please contact us to discuss our current availability to fulfil family history requests.
Our extensive archives house records of all the orphans that were cared for in the Müller Orphan Homes in Bristol - over 17,000 of them.
We often receive requests from individuals who are tracing their family history and, at a small charge, we are able to provide information and photocopies of the admission and dismissal dates of the orphans. In addition, there is usually other information we can locate in our archives such as a record of family details and a correspondence file, although these differ per record. These records do not form part of the public museum but can be viewed by arrangement. If you wish to arrange to view the records of your family member at our museum or you would like to obtain copies of records, please contact us to make an enquiry.
