Bitcoin Cash brings sound money to the world. Merchants and users are empowered with low fees and reliable confirmations. The future shines brightly with unrestricted growth, global adoption, permissionless innovation, and decentralized development.

I have successfully retrieved some Bitcoin Cash by identifying transactions using bip39-standalone with my mnemonic (from Multibit HD).

However, there is a sequence of transactions where I can't find the transaction address using bip39-standalone.

I originally received 3 Bitcoins and later spent 0.5 (pre-fork). Looking at blockchain.info, I can see that my original 3 split into 0.5 and 2.5. The 2.5 then split into 0.001 (presumably a mining fee) and the remainder, which is presumably the Bitcoin I still possess.

I can look up the transaction for the final split on blockdozer and, sure enough, there's a balance of just under 2.5 BCH. However, I can't find the transaction reference in the output of bip39-standalone. I have shown 500 rows - how far down should I need to go? Just to re-emphasise, I've used transactions at the top of this list to retrieve BCH, so the mnemonic and everything seems to work.

Thanks for any suggestions, either to identify the private key, or retrieve the BCH another way.
