I am a descendant of George Virgil Messer born in Hayward NC. His son, Elbert Messer was my grandfather, and my grandfather's sublings, among others, were Virgil, Frank, Marth, Weaver and Viola. I do know that my grandfather's step mother was Haseltine McAllister. I would love to share what I know and get info from others

Thanks,

I believe I am a descendant of Capt. Robert Messer. My grandfather's name is Clarence Elliot Messer. I hope I have gone in the right directions of descendants. Please let me know if you know anything.

Thank you,

My grandfather was Thomas Messer, born 1914-ish in N. Dakota, died 1974 in Yakima WA. Do not know parents or really any other info, I think there were 13 kids. Married Elizabeth Schmidt 1934-ish, came to Yakima and had 4 kids. Is there a "FREE" method of finding family information that you know of? I've never searched for this info before, and am wondering where to begin, any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello all, I am also a direct descendant of Captain Robert Messer. My line comes from Christian Sargent Messer, to George W Messer to Daniel Alden Boone Messer to Elijah Marcus Messer on down. I have done extensive research for this line, and more than willing to share with anyone interested.

Thanks

I knew a family of Messers in Christchurch New Zealand. They came to New Zealand from Scotland around 1930's.

Hello, I am tracing my Messer family and the names / dates are not matching. My links begin in Haywood Co., NC. My maternal grandmother was Effie Paralee Messer (m. Early) daughter of James, son of Emanuel (Manuel, Mann derivations) of Jonathan creek, son of ??? Possibly George, son of Christian ( is there a Christian Sr and Jr?)

Also, I am looking for links to who I may have been named for. my first name, Effie. Which was also my Granny's first name and I believe it is German.

I am also a direct descendant of Captain Messer via my grandfather Garland Pearson (G.P.) Messer. He was the 'lost' Messer brother according to the woman who used to put out the Messerville Gazette. He was considered 'lost' as he left home at age 12 and apparently never contacted his family again. I do not know any of his siblings nor the descendants. He was supposedly from the Nantahala area of North Carolina and was married to my grandmother Ada Self Messer and together they had nine children. Looking for any available info...
