We obtain Hauptmoduls of genus zero congruence subgroups of the type $\Gamma _{0}^{+}\left( p \right)\,\,:={{\Gamma }_{0}}\left( p \right)+{{w}_{p}}$, where $p$ is a prime and ${{w}_{p}}$ is the Atkin–Lehner involution. We then use the Hauptmoduls, along with modular functions on ${{\Gamma }_{1}}\left( p \right)$ to construct families of cyclic extensions of quadratic number fields. Further examples of cyclic extension of bi-quadratic and tri-quadratic number fields are also given.
