Restoring Safari Autofill Passwords

I just copied (Carbon copy cloner) my old drive and reinstalled the system.

I followed apple's suggestions on how to backup and restore keychains, but my autofill hasn't return (e.g. I had to remember my password to login to this site - and every other).

Is there some way to restore Safari's knowledge of website password autofills from my clone?

Just an update to complete this thread.
I have no idea why they weren't initially working, but after another ?two runs of Safari, if I remember correctly, I was asked if I wanted Safari to be allowed access to my keychains, and after granting this, the autofill resumed.
So, it seems restoring keychains will restore autofil passwords too.
