MEISSNER FAMILY HISTORY
Mom's side of the family (the Meissner/Meyer side) is not as easy to trace as the Dreves/Cordes side, in part because both 'Meissner' and 'Meyer' are extremely common German surnames; and in part because Meissner family record-keeping was not quite as thorough as on the Dreves side of the family. Nevertheless, I was able to put together a reasonably good narrative of the Meissner Family History (18 Mb PDF) in 2016.
Nevertheless, on this page I'll be posting anything interesting relating to Meissner/Meyer genealogy.
To start us off, take a few minutes to view the video recollections of Elsie (“Elly”) Meissner Dreves.
Also, an audio tape I recorded in 1967 at Billie, Fred & George Meissner's home in Bayside, NY ::
