Searching for the name 'di Judica'

gloria caruso

Just letting you know that it is nigh on impossible to search for the name 'di Judica' on the search engine.... can someone look at this please?.... I write the name in various ways (Judica de Judica, Giudica) but often end up having to go through a wife or mother of a different name as the search engine doesnt recognise the name  .... can anyone suggest a work around or can someone let FS know so some tech savvy person can fix it.... thanks

di = of, about, concerning - Italian.

One of the problems is that this surname is very prone to variations. The search engine will pick up some variations but not all of them. I did a test search and got these results:

I guess that one would have to search with the variations in mind - di Judica, de Judica, di Giudica and de Giudica.
