Wife was Marie Kjerstine (Christensen) Miller; Father was Hans Peter Moller (born & died in Denmark); Mother was Christence or Kristense (Hansdr or Espersen)Miller (she was born in Denmark and died in Sanford, Colorado). Andrew was the youngest of six children. The oldest child and sister was Katrine Kirstine Moller/Miller born in 1847, (married to Jens Jensen of Sanford). She was know as “Aunt Steeney”. She had three children: James P. Jensen, Mary Jensen Olsen, and Carolina Jensen Valentine. Second was another sister, Ann Katrine Moller born in 1849, (who also married a Jens Jensen, but settled in Utah). Third was a brother, Hans Michael Moller/Miller born in 1851, (who is found on land records in 1908 in Conejos county, Colorado). Hans was quite a “rounder”, so the story goes. He married a woman by the name of Annie, they never had any children. Hans is buried in the Sanford Cemetery. Fourth was a brother Andreas Jorgensen Moller born in 1853, and died at almost 4 years old in 1857 (before Andrew was born). Fifth was a third sister Josephine Caroline born in 1856 and died in 1857 (also before Andrew was born). It is easy to see why Andrew had been so petted by his mother, as she had lost these last to babies before Andrew was born. The family had been introduced to Mormonism and converted through the efforts of the Mormon Elders. Andrew’s oldest two sister joined the church first, Katrine Kirstine was baptized in 1856, and Ane Katrine was baptized in 1857. We are not sure of the baptism date for the mother Christence or for Hans; but we assume it was about this same time in Denmark. Andrew was baptized at age 10, just a few months after his father passed away. It is not known if the father, Hans Peter was baptized before he died, but we don’t think so. Andrew’s family all came to America, to settle with the Saints in Utah. Katrine Kirstine emigrated to Utah, several years before the rest of the family. Andrew age 17, along with his sister Ane Katrine age 24, came together to America. They emigrated on August 30, 1872, on the ship “Minnesota”. We are not sure when his mother Christence or Hans emigrated. The family name of Moller in Denmark, was changed to Miller when they emigrated to Utah.
