The House of Denaro

The Denaro's originated from Genoa, but settled in Sicily where they owned large vineyards. Rosario Denaro was sent to Malta to look after the family's interests there, and he fell in love with the beautiful Mary. After their marriage in Malta, Rosario and Mary went to live in Riposto, Sicily near to the family estates. But when Mary became pregnant, she returned to Malta, so that her child would avoid conscription into the Italian Army. They settled in Malta for good.
