Some recent correspondences have brought together two de Mouilpied descendants from South Wales (UK.) Apparently a Nicolas de Mouilpied jumped ship before the 1900's and his son, also a Nicolas, went on to have 10 or 11 children. Some members have dropped the beginning de and also that first "i" resulting in the last name Moulpied. It is estimated the jumping Nicolas was born in 1883ish and his father, also probably a Nicolas b. 1840ish.
If you have any more information or genealogy on this branch of the family which settled in Wales, kindly be in touch. There are some enthusiastic de Mouilpieds (and Moulpieds) wanting to meet their local cousins.
Cheers.
