Biography
Margareth, daughter of Hans Conrad Zuppinger never had the name Barbara. She was baptized only as Margareth and was named as "Margareth, age 19" when she arrived in Philadelphia, with her father in 1735. She may have been Christopher Miller's first wife, but when he wrote his will in 1775, he named his wife, Barbara. It is fairly obvious Barbara is not Margareth Zuppinger.

Dutch Reformed Church Records\John Casper Stoever Ministerial Records on Ancestry at https://www.ancestry.com/discoveryui-content/view/16243014:2451?ssrc=pt&tid=114514394&pid=242278452720 shows that an Anna Barbara Shuppinger married a Johannes Muller in 1742 in Tulpehocken, but this couple on WikiTree is Christopher and Margreth.
In the absence of any evidence, perhaps both women should be detached from Miller.
Several generations of this Miller family were duplicates. Spelling is the issue. Once the "correct" spelling has been determined, a merge can be proposed into the "correct" spelling.
Thanks!
