Footnote: Grand Master Rohan on the 30th December 1794, issued a diploma conferring the title of Barone della Grua upon the Magnifico Saverio Carbott Testaferrata, and his first-born sons and descendants, under the rule of primogeniture (de primogenitor in primogenito). The following is an extract from the patent of creation: Tibi tuisque filiis et descendentibus masculis de primogenito in primogenitum tribuimus et concedimus et te hujusmodi Baronis titulo decoramus.. That is to say the grant confers the title on the grantee and his male descendants, from firstborn to firstborn By 1878, the male-to-male descending line of the said Saverio was extinct, for Saverio Carbott left Giuseppe Carbott, second Barone, of whom Saverio Carbott Montalto, junior, was born. Saverio Carbott, junior, had no male issue, but only a daughter Giovanna Carbott Montalto, wife of Dr. Giuseppe Delicata, of whom Nicola Maria Delicata was born (see below).

1. Nicola Maria Delicata Carbott, 5th Barone -See Below.
Footnote: Although Giovanna Carbott Montalto is listed by published sources as the 4th Baronessa della Grua , such listing is consonant with neither the 1794 grant nor the recommendations of the 1878 Commission because the charter specifically allows males only to enjoy the title. Whether in this case, a male can succeed through a female descent is discussed below. See: Correspondence and Report of the Commission appointed to enquire into the claims and grievances of the Maltese Nobility, May 1878, presented to both Houses of Parliament by Command of Her Majesty (C.-2033.).

When Nicola Maria Delicata claimed this title, a question arose whether the grant made out to Saverio Carbott allows the son of a female descendant to be called to the succession of a title, or, on the contrary, the title is determined by the extinction of the grantees male line. With reference to that question, the 1878 Commissioners opined that it is a settled point of jurisprudence that the appellation of male descendants includes not only the sons issuing from the male line (masculi ex masculis), but also those issuing from the female line (masculi ex foeminis), when, however, some other expression occurs in the deed of grant which controls the meaning of that term, as for instance when the grantor limits his grant to such among his male descendants as should belong to the male line (descendentes masculi ex linea masculina);, or when he employs other words which clearly show that he contemplated the grantees agnatio, in such case, the effect of the disposition is limited to the male line, and on the failure of males issuing from that line the grant becomes extinct, the male issue of daughters not being called into succession.
In the case of the grant to Saverio Carbott, the order of succession settled in the 1794 charter granting the title in question includes generally the grantees male descendants, and therefore taking the law relative to the transmission of lands (primogeniture) to be applicable to the transmission of titles, that charter was taken to comprehend Nicola Maria Delicata who albeit the primogenial descendant of Saverio Carbott. is only descended from the grantee through a female line.
