He was the son of Niels Jørgensen Møller and Karen Rasmusdatter. Møller studied law before working as an assistant in Nuuk, Qeqertarsuatsiaat, Paamiut, Aasiaat, Sisimiut and Qaqortoq. Møller served as Governor of Holsteinsborg for 13 years until he replaced the Inspector of South Greenland, Carl Peter Holbøll (1795-1856), who was lost at sea returning from Denmark in 1856. He served as Inspector until the following year, when his son-in-law, Hinrich Johannes Rink (1819–1893) replaced him.[1][2]
He was married to Antonette Ernestine Constance Tommerup (1813-91). His daughter was the noted Greenland-born ethnologist Signe Rink (1836–1909).[3]
