The son of Thomas & Mary Mullin or Mullen, in 1850 the family lived in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He married Sarah Jane Zeigler and fathered Martha Jane (b. 05/08/57 - married William E. Langeheine), Priscilla Elmira (b. 1859), Jemima Ann "Jennie" (b. 04/03/63 - married George W. Waggoner), Catherine Mary (b. 04/28/66 - married Samuel H. Weiser), Olive Grace (b. @1869), Caroline Nora (b. 10/03/71 - married Peter A. Howe), Isaac Arnold (b. 07/31/74), and Minnie M. (b. 05/04/78 - married Harry Clay). In 1860, he was a laborer living with his family in South Middleton Township, Cumberland County, and stood 5' 6" tall with dark hair and gray eyes.

A Civil War veteran, he enlisted in Carlisle March 7, 1865, mustered into federal service there March 13 as a private with the 101st Pennsylvania Infantry in the second organization of Co. F, and honorably discharged with his company June 25, 1865.

Some have contended that "Mullen" is the correct spelling of the surname and that "Mullin" is a result of misspelled military records. It is a plausible conjecture. especially given that his wife is buried as "Mullen."
