RootsTech 2013 Day 1

Day One - RootsTech conference
Carmen Borg and Allan Wojcik

 We have met so many lovely people from all around the world.  I must say the Maltese have alot to be proud of as we are highly regarded.  There was close to 7,000 in attendance and tomorrow promises to be the same.  I was delighted to talk to the visitors that stopped by our booth.  Many had questions about their own Maltese ancestors and just a few were unaware of where Malta was located but it was all good.  Many people came to mejust to say "thank you" for being a vendor at this all important conference as they feel that it's about time someone acknowledges the people from the Mediterranean.  Carmen
We are the missing link aren't we?

Welcome to BACK to MALTA blog!

There are more Maltese outside the Maltese Islands than there are citizens residing in the country itself. The Maltese outside Malta are either emigrants or descendents of emigrants. The countries which have most traditionally hosted the Maltese diaspora are Australia, Canada, the U.S.A., and Britain. Nevertheless, there are Maltese living in virtually every country around the world and this blog will travel the world in hopes of bringing the Maltese back to Malta.
