hello. I am also trying to research the surname Messina. The only concrete information that I have now, is Joseph Messina, married to Louise Ada Barker 6/5/1949. Joe has only other sibling, a sister, Mary, she married a Chamberlain and lives in Evans Mills. NY, Their parents: father Michael Messina and Moriah, or Mariah, last name possible Bometri, of Sicily, Italy. If anyone can be of assistance, I would greatly appreciate, it. Thank You. Laura
