John Messinger - John and Anne Messinger Children

Analyze, revise/add to John and Anne Messenger list children as follows (source - various tree inputs in Heritage, which are not in full agreement with each other):

Amanda Phillips (born Messenger), Benjamin Franklin Messenger, Charles Holt Messenger, Delinda Messenger, John Milton Messenger, Minerva Olivia Messenger, Matthew Lyon Messenger, Pamelia Anne Linesch (born Messenger), Elon Lee Messenger

Honestly it is difficult to determine spelling of last name. It apparently has been misspelled so many times that both ways have become accepted, making it more difficult to trace the tree. John and Anne headstones have "Messinger", while right adjacent is son Matthew Lyon's, which is spelled "Messenger". It is worth considering if an alternative exists to add other spelling to this family as "also known as" or nickname.
