Meisenheim is on the Glan River in what I believe is the Rhein Pfalz, but the Congress of Vienna gave the District of Meisenheim to the Duke of Hesse Homberg. My question is - Where should I be looking for the records of my ancestors who emigrated from Meisenheim in 1845 or 1846 ? In The Pfalz or in Hesse ? Does anyone know some history of the area ? Vern
