  1) Johann Carl Georg Wilhelm Mueller, He was born in 1838, in Helmstedt, Braunschweig
  2) unknown name, He emigrated to the United States.

Hello Carlos,

Johanna's name of Mueller must be her married name - right? Do you
know her own surname before marriage? Do you know her husband's first
(given) name? Do you have the date of the marriage of Johanna and her
husband?

It is very difficult to find information on a woman without her
surname, husband's name or parents' name.

Hallo Barbara,
  Thank you.
  She was single mother.
  This is the birth registration of Johann Wilhelm:

  "in den hier verwalhrten Kirchenbuch-Zweitschriften de evangelisch-luterischen Gemeinde Helmstedt, St. Stephani wurden folgende eintr�ge ermittelt:

  N 85) Johann Carl Georg Wilhelm M�ller
  Geboren: 30.08.1838 morgens acht Uhr.
  Vater: nicht genannt
  Mutter: Johanne Wilhelmine Juliane M�ller, 25 Jahre alt.
  Taufzeugen: Adolph Wilhelm Ferdinand Paul, K�rschnergesell; Johann georg Biedermann, K�rschnergesell; Jungfer Johanne Henriette Juliane Plock, N�herin, Jungfer Caroline Elisabeth Marie Schmidt, Dienstmagd.
  Bemerkung: N 85 ist ein uneheliches kind. Mit Zustimmung und in Gegenwart der Mutter hat sich der Zimmergeelle August Ludwig Theodor Schmidt unterm [17.] M�rz [1839] zum Vater des Kindes erkl�rt, welcher mir wo[h]l bekannt. [Unterschrift:] Franz Henricih Voight, Opfermann."

  I know that Johann Wihelm had a brother, at least. This brother emigrated to the United States.I try to discover the parents' of Johanne names and of August Ludwig Theodor Schmidt.

Hello Carlos,

I have been unable to find much on your family. There is one place
that you can look do a search and you get the names of persons in Helmstedt:

Go here: http://meta.genealogy.net/metasuche/index.jsp

Search for Müller and Helmstedt. You will get three names. Click on each
blue arrow on the far right and you will get the name of the person who
submitted that information. You could write an email to each of them and
request more information.

The LDS (Morman) (www.familysearch.org) has records for Helmstedt:

Germany, Braunschweig, Helmstedt - Church records
Germany, Braunschweig, Helmstedt - Civil registration
Germany, Braunschweig, Helmstedt - History
Germany, Braunschweig, Helmstedt - Jewish records
Germany, Braunschweig, Helmstedt - Naturalization and citizenship
Germany, Braunschweig, Helmstedt - Schools

The church records are for the Catholic church, but your people were
not Catholic. The other records do not have much that would help you.

I'm sorry I can't be of more help.

Good luck,
Barbara

Hallo Barbara,

  Anyway, thank you for your help. I will send and e mail for those contacts and I will also try to discover some genealogist in the Helmstedt area.

  About immigrants and families from Helmstedt and Braunschweig, don't exist many informtions on line. I have parts of the books: Helmstedter B�rgerbuch but, I don�t find a safe information.
  In the next updating that I do of my home page:
  (Fam�lia M�ller: http://br.geocities.com/familia_mueller/ ), I will put a page of immigrants' database, counting the families from Helmstedt and Braunschweig that came to Brazil.

  Mit freundlichen Gr��en

  Carlos
