My grandfather's name is Charles Mesje...Is there a connection to that last name in Poland...when I go onto SKYPE the name comes up mostly in Poland...He would of come to the USA early 1900's.

MESJE: perhaps derived from the Hebrew name Meshullam or Messiah (in Polish: Mesjasz).

That cannot be ruled out. Mosiej, Mosiek and similar are dervied from Moses (Mojżesz)
