Notes:
In 1899, Edward Muller, a prominent founding citizen of San Pedro built a home at First and Front Street for his parents who resided in Wilmington. They choose not to move to the new home. William Muller purchased the home in 1901. In 1912, Front Street was cut down to be widened and became Harbor Blvd. At this time the house was relocated by mule and wagon to 19th Street and Grand Avenue where it remained until 1986 when it was donated to the San Pedro Bay Historical Society for use as a museum. The house reflects the changes made by the Muller family during their years of living in it. The house was declared Cultural Heritage Monument # 254 in 1982. The land the house sits on is leased from the City of Los Angeles and is maintained by the Society. It was renovated by the Society and was opened to the public in the fall of 1990."
