Looking for anyone familiar with the name Mugnaio. First name Gianni Became a Merchant seaman. Came to Liverpool England sometime in 1860's changed name to John Miller married Rose Cosh in Liverpool around 1870-1880. Died in Liverpool around 1910.
Apreciate anyone having information regarding the name or family history.
Thank you,
Norman E. Miller
I believe John first name correct.... many italians changed in various censuses the surname and also the first names... and the only John Miller that matching for age is the John Miller son of Anthony Miller, italian... no traces of John Miller in further censuses.... and also another child of Anthony Miller, Felix, changed the first name in Thomas, so become Thomas Miller... when I made the search abt italian roots of my friend George, I found the same thing... and also George had perplexities.... but in further search we have found the right roots with document's proofs ..... so maybe you can ask in the family if Matthew had siblings and if someone remember the first names.....
Best regards, suanj
