Miholani Cacace
Born about 1927; death not recorded
The eldest child of Carmine Cacace and Ruth Noga, born in New York about 1927 and aged thirteen in the 1940 census, where the enumerator or the indexer wrote her name **Miholani** — which is not an Italian name. **Nicolina** or **Michelina** are the likely originals; Nicolina would name her for her paternal grandfather Nicola Cacace, as Italian custom directs. She is an elder sister of Gina Cacace's grandfather Frederick.

What we still don't know
- **Her actual name.** Miholani is a misreading. Her birth record, about 1927 in Brooklyn, would give it.
- No death is recorded. This person is treated as deceased on age alone — they would be in their late nineties — and not because any record says so.
- Everything after 1940.
