Descendants of Harry Mesenshnik

  Notes:  This tree goes back to Shepetovka in the province of Volhynia in Russia, now Ukraine. In America the family name was changed to Weissman. The original name was pronounced Meh-SHON-shnik, and the spelling Mesenshnik appears on certain American documents. 
   The symbol "+" indicates a marriage, and people "married in" to the Mesenshnik/Weissman line are listed in italics. Married women are listed with their maiden names only. Children's names are indented underneath their parents' names.  Year of birth and year of death are listed if known; no other personal information will be published on the Web. 
   More information about individuals named here is available upon request from Lynne Tolman, who is not a descendant of Harry Mesenshnik but is related to some descendants of Harry Mesenshnik. Please contact Lynne with any questions, corrections or additions.
