I have many Massong ancestors, but am not clear on the original request.  Nor do I speak or read German.  Therefore, if someone could state the original request about information on the Massong line I would be happy to share anything I might have collected through the years of looking for them.

Seems like a radicle (pre -Banat) spelling change, but all seem to be from the same general area near St Hebert / Szecsenfalva etc.. My thought was the spellings were from antiquity... Does the Stader list the colonist name name Massong Mussong Muschong ///// under "one" name or... "both" / similar spellings?

Anne, there have been several helpful replies to this already, but it would be great if you can add more... Matthias Dell, a contact of mine from Germany, is seeking help tracking down Anna Massong (born Mayer) who immigrated to Minnesota after WWII. His original German message and a Google translation are below. His email address is included above. Meine Uroma Anna Massong ist nach dem Krieg in die USA ausgewandert. Sie hat dort in Minnesota gewohnt und ist dort auch gestorben. An wen kann man sich wenden um an Melde oder Sterbedaten zu kommen? My Uroma Anna Massong emigrated to the USA after the war. She lived there in Minnesota and died there. Who can you turn to for registration or stereotypes?
