When researching your immigrant ancestor in America (not sure about Canada), you have to try the prefix with and without the space. De Bem and then try Debem. de mello and DeMello. Da Silva and dasilva. Etc, etc. And then try the Anglizations of the name. Cheri Mello Listowner, Azores-Gen

Karlushko, Most forms in America have a first name field and a surname field. There is no field for a pre-surname. So if your first name is Ricardo, then your last name is da Silva and if you put da Silva in the surname field, surnames must be capitalized so they wind up putting Da Silva. Some
