Hi Eunice and Simone, Just a word of encouragement - my gt.grandparents eldest son was Antonio Angelo Muccachiodi,b 1857.I found the family in the 1881 census listed as Moccachiode,not too bad !! I couldn't find Antonio at all,so I thought maybe he'd died.I started to look through the BMDs on fiche and found his marriage and the births of some of his children, luckily,the first born was a couple weeks prior to the census.Armed with the address,I trawled the census and finally found him listed as ANTHONEY MINOR !!How on earth can you get MINOR from MUCCACHIODI ??? So maybe your rels are there,just lurking under a different name !!
