Giorgio is one of those people whose life is documented through a series of entries in church registries, as often happened in Malta.

He is one of my maternal 6 x great-grandfathers.

He was born on Tuesday 31 August 17281 in the parish of St Paul Shipwreck1, Valletta Malta1. He was the son of Giuseppe Darmenia1 and Diana Foti2. His family baptised him the day after1 in the parish church as Carlo Pietro Giorgio1.
