Anna Mueck was probably born ca. 1657 at a place called Solmfeld near Strasburg. HZ Jones, in The Palatine Families of New York, (1986), p. 820 says that her father, Hans Jerg Mück was from Solmfeld, located "2 hours from Straßburg." But he was born in Kusterdingern. Kusterdingen in the Palatinate is also the home village of her husband and the site of her marriage.
Anna Mueck married Jacobus Schaeffer,((son of the deceased "Gerichtsverwandter (=local council), Conrad Schäfer,on 13 Jun 1683 in Kusterdingen. [1][2]
Anna Mueck died ca. 1709.
Many name variations in Anna's last name at birth Several of her children's baptismal record give her LNB as Mückin

Baden-Württemberg, which, when Anna was born, was in Germany. However, the borders have changed since then and Strasbourg is now in France.
We need to sit down with Henry Z. Jones' book of "The Palatine Families of New York" to overcome the confusion with these families.
Also, there were four children born in 1689.
Could it be that some of these children are attached to the wrong parents??
