    1. [MABRISTO] Thanks for 1930 NJ Census Lookup
    2. Joan S.
    3. Dear Barbara and Robert, Thank you both for looking up these two families for me. Barbara, it would appear that you hit the nail on the head with the family listed as "Maclonci". Not having the names of the parents, I didn't hold out much hope for success with this one. But the names and ages of all five children in the "Maclonci" household match what scant info I had for the five "Macioci" children. Unfortunately I don't have an Ancestry membership, but even without seeing the images, from past experience I have learned to be creative and broadminded when interpreting the census taker's handwriting. {:-) Barbara and Robert, I had slim hopes of finding the surname Castelluccio intact. As for success in finding this family, I had pinned my hopes on having the parents' names, but no such luck. One has to allow for the fact that in addition to the possibility of the name having been spelled beyond recognition, it's entirely possible they were simply missed by the census taker. In re-reading my scribbled notes, it seems at some point in either the late 1920s or early 1930s, the Castelluccio family lived in Newark on "Abington Avenue West". Don't know if that tidbit of info would make a difference in the search results. Thanks again for your help. Best regards.
