Hi

I have a relative who was here 1861 aged 20 from Kirn Prussia, then later it changes to Germany. I can find nothing to help me.
I know he was Jewish (this changed to catholic) and from our family bible their surname also changes Mesinger, Mefsinger and the one that I have know Messenger.

Can anyone please point me in the right direction, I now feel as though I am running in circles.

Thank you
