| Abstract: | Emigration is a popular subject with local historians. However, few, if any historians, have focussed on Gozitan nineteenth century migration. Admittedly, this lacuna is difficult to fill because of the paucity of primary material concerning the smaller of the Maltese Islands. Nevertheless, persistent research could yield some interesting results. One source that could repay laborious mining is, of course, the Passport Records at the National Archives of Malta. An added bonus is the possibility to browse through the passport applications on line. These records can be supplemented by an internet site listing, in database form, the passports issued in Malta and which allows for searching/sorting through the various records. [Excerpt] |
