• Notes

  The German surname Meißner is usually traced to the town Meissen or Meißen (near Dresden) where porcelain was first produced in Europe (around 1700). According Hans Bahlow, a famous German onomastician, the name of the town originates from the Slavic word 'Misna' = 'Sumpfort' (English: place of swamp, marshland). The porcelain factory in Meissen is on the bank of the Misna river. There are a few other places in Germany with the same name. Meißen is the name of a principality; and there is a mountain named Meißner in northern Hesse, and a nearby community 37290 Meißner. MEISSNER or MEIßNER is the most frequent spelling in Germany, with 12,400+ entries in the German phone book. Other common spellings are MEIXNER (2,000+ entries) and MEICHSNER (700+ entries). The latter two are especially common in the border region near Bohemia (now Czech Republic).
