A first-person genealogy record tracing a Maltese family from Nadur, Gozo, through passport files, parish archives, citizenship rules, fees, and dead ends.

Why it surfaced

This is unusually concrete family-history writing: a €1.50 archive request led to the name of an ancestor no one in the family had spoken aloud in ninety years. It also records the practical cost of the citizenship process, including the correction of a widely repeated €1,505 filing fee to the documented €150 figure.
