Maltese Surname & Family Tree information available 1911 & Prior, Spain & Malta
I have in my possession a book written by a relative of mine back in 1911 for the President of Spain (I think).
The book contains these family surnames.
Abela, Agius, Amaira, Attard, Assopardo, Barbara, Benso, Bezzina, Bonnici, Borg, Borja, Briffa, Brignone, Burlo, Busutil, Bugeia, Ballus, Camilleri, Caruana, Cassar, Cassia, Ciantar, Cini, Curmi, Dalli, Diacono, Dimech, Ellul, Emanuel, Espanol, Farrugia, Fenech, Gaffiero, Galea,
Gallo, Gambin, Gat, Gauci, Grech, Grima, Maltes, Mallia, Micallef, Mifsud, Mizzi, Muscat, Nardo o de Leonardo, Orlando, Parnis, Pasalacqua, Piscopo, Psaila, Rizzo, Sant, Saura, Spadero, Spiteri, Tabone, Trigona, Vella, Xara, Xerri, Xicluna, Xuereb, Zahra, Zammit, Bonello, Butigieg, Calli o Cali, Cumbo, Pace o Pax, Vassallo.
Each family is researched from the family in Spain as far back as possible including Maltese records. The Caruana family (mine) is researched back to 1100 AD. Each family also has a picture of the crest at that time.
This is the rub. This book is written in Old Spanish and needs to be translated to English. The cost of this is around $4000 US dollars. Before I embark on this financial endevour I want to know if there is any interest out there in geneology land for this information. I need to be able to recoup the costs. The value of this information is to great to not at least try so please send me an email if you would be interest in this information for your geneology project. [email protected]
I am not looking for financial committment, just an interest level. If I decide to translate and publish the book, those who email me will be contacted.
Thank you,
Mark (Caruana) Romanowski
