I am looking for the family of Francis John Cutaiar, (or Cutajar), who was born in 1799 or 1800 in Malta. He was my fourth great-grandfather.

I have no information on who his parents may have been or where exactly he was born in Malta.

He married Amelia Luzenberg, of Alsace, France.

I do not have a marriage location or the exact date.

He was listed as living in New York City in 1828 with his wife and one daughter, Amelia Cutaiar. From there he moved to Philadelphia, PA and had several more children, including my third great-grandfather, and remained there until he died in 1861.

I would love to be able to trace back my family in Malta and also find any living relatives still remaining there.

I had my DNA tested and I am four per cent Italian, which leads me to believe that it’s more than likely coming from my grandfather’s family in Malta.

Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

I can be reached via agmmjmd@gmail.com.
