A couple of months ago, I posted this write-up here which points out that Richard Bissell Jr. (CIA Director of Plans) was the first cousin (once removed) of Robert Swan Mueller III. (FYI – “removed” is the cousin of a parent. So, your father’s “first cousin” is your “first cousin - once removed.” A “second cousin” is how your child and your first cousin’s child are related.)(Original here)
Robert Swan Mueller’s mother, Alice Mueller nee Truesdale, had a sister named Marie Truesdale. Marie Truesdale married Richard M. Bissell Sr. There son, Richard M. Bissell Jr. is therefore the first cousin of Alice Truesdale Mueller, and the first cousin (once removed) of Robert Swan Mueller III.
The Truesdales and the Bissells are names that are often associated with “Eastern Establishment” families. More famous Eastern Establishment names include the Rockefellers, Morgans, Vanderbilts and duPonts, among others. Other often heard names include the Harriman, Bush/Walkers, Cabot, Lodge, Weld, Symington and Delano.
The Truesdale family acquired its Eastern Establishment credentials via William Haynes Truesdale (1851-1931) who was President of Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad (DLW). Many of the existing NJ Transit rights-of-way from the ‘burbs into NYC were originally developed by the DLW, or Delay, Linger and Wait, as NJ Commuters used to call it.
The Bissell Family were early settlers in the Hartford Connecticut area.
“Richard Bissell was descended from Samuel Bissell, a member of George Washington's spy corps during the American Revolution. Richard's father was a successful insurance executive in Hartford who bought Mark Twain's mansion, which became Richard Bissell's childhood home.” (Bissell Twain House)
The Internet gets a lot of things wrong.
If you start researching Robert Mueller’s resume, eventually your search results will turn up a few links that say Robert Swan Mueller III (or his wife) is the child of General Charles P. Cabell, or the uncle, or some other close relationship. Except by marriage, Robert Mueller is not closely related to Charles P. Cabell or his brother Earle (Mayor of Dallas when JFK was killed.) It was this incorrect information that led me to the discovery of the closer Mueller/Bissell relationship.
The Cabell’s are another Eastern Establishment Family. They were early settlers in Virginia, were instrumental in the War for Independence (as Statesmen and Soldiers) and seemed to have a General in every US war from 1800 on.
The Cabells are also numerous and widespread with some branches moving west to St. Louis and Texas and others staying in Virginia. Robert Mueller’s wife, Ann Cabell Standish of the St. Louis branch is distantly related to Charles and Earle Cabell of the Texas Branch. Ann Cabell and the brothers, would probably considered 3rd or 4th cousins once or twice removed.
While the “blood” relationship between the Muellers and Texas Cabells is relatively distant, despite what the Internet says, they most certainly traveled in the same social circles and appear to have summered with each other on a small Island in the Chesapeake developed specifically as a retreat for many of the elite families that profited immensely from the United States entry into World War I.
Gibson Island, just south of Annapolis, is one of those Islands that the wealthy congregated on, built huge summer cottages, and kept out the “rif-raf.” Think Jupiter Island or Jeckyll Island, or Kennebunkport. William Stuart Symington is credited with the initial development of Gibson Island after WWI, selling parcels to members of the Rockefeller family, the Walkers, the Pearres and Robert Swan Mueller III grandfather, Robert Swan Mueller Sr. (2)
By the start of WW2, there were probably less than 50 families on Gibson Island. “Manly” activities centered around the Yacht Club and Golf Club. The ladies played golf or planned and hosted summer cotillions, garden parties and a summer carnival at St. Christopher’s Episcopal Chapel. Mrs. Robert Mueller and Mrs. Sifford Pearre helped organize the 1937 carnival. (Screenshot)
The Mueller and Cabell connection is a little less tenuous with the planning of the 1937 church carnival and Gibson Island in general. Although Charles P. Cabell (later General and CIA Deputy Director) was born and raised in the Dallas area, his parents apparently felt close enough to his other Virginia relatives, to give him the middle name “Pearre.”
No one is alleging the Mueller family is part of the same Bissell/Cabell contingent that had something to do with the assassination of JFK. It may be just coincidence that they are related, or at least traveled in the same elite circles. Beyond Bissell and Cabell though, the Mueller’s circle of near and distant relatives include the Cushings (Diplomats and Congressman), the Child family (Julia Child, Chef, OSS agent and other CIA connections) the Astors and the Prudhommes (World Bank; Hector Prudhomme helped implement the 1953 CIA Iranian Coup to install the Shah.)
Although not apparently related, Godfrey Rockefeller would certainly have been at least an acquittance of the Mueller’s, as a resident of Gibson Island, as well as colleague of Michael Paine (husband of Ruth Forbes Paine, Marina Oswald’s “friend”) when Godfrey was the Chief Pilot of Bell Helicopter from the 50s to early 70’s, and Michael worked there for his step father. The Mueller connections to the Duponts are also worth a closer look. Here is Robert Mueller Sr. pictured with Eugene Dupont. (Robert Mueller Jr. worked for Dupont for about 30 years after WW2.)

Super weird report yesterday that while he was in the USMC in Vietnam, Mueller had in some way been connected with THE PHOENIX PROJECT..?!
Anyone else hear that?
It was so nuts I didn’t post anything about it. I decided to wait.
Anyone think that could be possible..?
So what we have in our government is a bunch of inbred feces all out of the same dog!
In the late ‘70’s, we were looking to buy our first house in the Baltimore metro area and looked at a couple of the cheapest for sale on Gibson Island. Inlaws lived there and one of my brothers in law would take me night shooting at the dump where we’d shoot rats with AR 15’s. It was great fun but didn’t last long because the neighbors reported the gunfire to the island rent-a-cops.
Mueller was in a COMBAT unit, and despite him being in the USMC, he went to Ranger school and Airborne school.
“...and despite him being in the USMC, he went to Ranger school and Airborne school.”
?? Sounds unusual...?

Lost in the weeds.
Who are the two directors fired by JFK?
Power begets power. Most are born into it. Few are adopted (as Trump demonstrates).
There are buttons getting pushed now that go deep into the dark soul of our government. God, please protect President Trump and his soldiers.
Are you talking about Project Phoenix (SETI) dealing with the search for extraterrestrial intelligence?
“Robert Swan Mueller’s mother, Alice Mueller nee Truesdale, had a sister named Marie Truesdale. Marie Truesdale married Richard M. Bissell Sr. There son, Richard M. Bissell Jr. is therefore the first cousin of Alice Truesdale Mueller, and the first cousin (once removed) of Robert Swan Mueller III.”
I’m confused. If Alice Truesdale Mueller had a sister Marie Truesdale Bissell wouldn’t her sister’s son be her nephew and not her first cousin? And wouldn’t Robert Mueller be Richard Bissell, Jr.’s first cousin?
“Are you talking about Project Phoenix (SETI) dealing with the search for extraterrestrial intelligence?”
No. The Viet Cong operated like the mafia, in that they had a man in every village. He wanted nothing, and asked nothing, but if anything happened to him, the entire village would be made to pay.
Maybe once a year or so, the villagers would be required to provide labor/taxes/support for the Viet Cong. A hundred men
might have to haul weapons, dig tunnels, etc. — had to. No excuses for failure.
Everybody was afraid to report on these men for the same reason nobody tells on the mafia guy.
The Phoenix program was designed to take these men out.
It did so, but whether it killed a lot of other extraneous people or personal enemies, is debatable.
“Who are the two directors fired by JFK?”
One was Allan Dulles (a real skunk in our history, if you read up on him).
I’m assuming Bissell might have been another (though I don’t think he was head of the Agency).
In spite of vigorous rebuttals by CIA management of the findings, CIA Director Allen Dulles, CIA Deputy Director Charles Cabell, and Deputy Director for Plans Richard Bissell were all forced to resign by early 1962.[86]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bay_of_Pigs_InvasionIn later years, the CIA's behavior in the event became the prime example cited for the psychology paradigm known as groupthink syndrome.[103]
Further study shows that among various components of groupthink analyzed by Irving Janis, The Bay of Pigs Invasion followed the structural characteristics that led to an irrational decision making in foreign policy pushed by deficiency in impartial leadership.[188]
The Deep State is ... well ... it’s deep. Really deep. And not very new.
Thanks for the response.
While it is very interesting that Gestapo Mueller is related to the Bissell family, and a bunch of other establishment families (and it does interest me a lot, as I have been tracing my own family tree for nearly 25 years), what is more interesting is how Gestapo Mueller has abused the power entrusted to him for decades. Innocent people rotted in jail for years, 2 of whom died, when Gestapo Mueller KNEW that they had done nothing wrong.
He is a morally-bankrupt, utterly amoral/immoral scumbag, and that would be the case whether he was descended from kings or horse thieves.
