There are 225 persons in Italy surnamed Malta and 50% are located in Sicily and Calabria regions. The rest are distributed thru the rest of Italy. You will have to know the town of origin in order to find relatives there. If you go to the www.eelisisland.org website perhaps you can look up your grandparents arrival in the USA as immigrants if they came here thru NY from Italy. I surmise when you say Messina you mean Messina New York and not Messina, Italy. Peter

Well then you can contact them by letter., I suggest you include a slef addressed envelope with a dollar inside for stamps to encourage a reply but in mos cases it is not needed if you know them. Peter
