for straters there are 804 Meini inItaly and 85% are from Toscana with ther majortiy coming from the Provinces of Firenze and Pisa. If the surname is spelled Mieni there are only 8 persons in all of Italy and all from Padova province. Firenze and Pisa are in the Toscana region and Padova is in the Veneto region, Please make an effort to determine the correct spelling. In the meantime what year (s) did they come to OZ and where did they land when they got here????? Give me all the Information. Peter
