I am endeavouring to contact anyone who may be related to my grandparents, Giovanni Debono and Veneranda Vella. My grandmother Veneranda was born in Mellieħa in 1883 and died in St Paul's Home, Ħamrun in 1957. She and her husband had seven children, the youngest of which was my father Edward Debono. I have only recently learned that Veneranda had a brother Francisco who went to Australia in 1913, but I do not know anything about any other siblings.
Veneranda's parents were Victorio Vella and Giovanna Said but I know nothing about them. Because I moved to Australia as a young girl, I find it very difficult to obtain information on the family. I can be contacted via my husband's e-mail address: geoff.mullins@hotmail.com or I have a local Malta contact in my cousin Mary Rose Grech on 7926 3223.
