RE: The JewishGen Family Finder:

My grandfather, Dezider (Dovid) Messinger's sister, Katherina (Kayla) Messinger, was the wife of Kalman Messinger. Yes, he married his own cousin. The father of Dezider and Katherina was Baruch Messinger. He was the brother of your great-grandfather, Shimon Messinger.

I know another great-grandson of Shimon Messinger, he lives near me here in Jerusalem and his name is Robi Messinger.

I always a dream of writing an account of how life used to be in the old country in horne saliby. Maybe you can help me and/or my mother with such a project? I'm looking for stories and family traditions and descriptions...
