Help! Help!! Help!!!

I've been searching for a clue about the birthplace of my maternal
grandfather, Jacob Rassner, for close to 10 years!

When I read Wm. Hoffman's extensive answer re surnames it gave me the
courage to ask him and/or others what they make of the names attributed to
Jacob.

Jacob Rassner was listed as Jeoh...el Rasner on the Ellis Island website,
Yechel ben Yekesiel on his headstone, and whose Father's name is listed as
Kishe Rassner on Jacob's death certificate.

I'll appreciate any light anyone can shed on my dilemma Thank you!!!
