Abstract: The round-up below is perforce limited, and who knows how many more have lived here and perhaps managed to go unnoticed. Undoubtedly, the very first must have been members of that old Genoese family, the Spinola ("SpEEn-ola" please!) It was their connection with the Order of St John which brought them to our shores. One of them, the Marquis Francesco Napoleone, bought land in the area of St Julian's Bay where, once the summer' palace and little church of the Immaculate Conception were built in the late 1680s, soon gave way to an alternative name to the bay and surroundings as "Spinola''.
