On 18 March 1589, he seems to have received a clerical tonsure which brought him under the Church's jurisdiction, protecting him from the powers of the Order of St. John who at the time ruled Malta.
He eventually began an extramarital affair with Aloisetta Veron, and married her on 14 January 1657.
[1] Tabone and his family had moved to Birgu by 1609, but he seems to have also returned to Żejtun at some points in his later life.
In his later life, he had at least two black slaves, Gugliemo and Madalena, who were eventually set free.
[1] Clemente Tabone is mostly known for his role in the 1614 Raid on Żejtun, in which a fleet of Ottoman galleys landed some 6,000 men in St. Thomas Bay in Marsaskala and pillaged the village of Żejtun which had been abandoned by its inhabitants after they heard about the attack.
It contains a courtyard, cistern and a nearby field, matching the description, and the date "1624" is reportedly inscribed inside the building.
It has a main door in the middle with an imposing window decorated with a local Melitan moulding.
It bore the following inscription, but it has been lost:[1][3] Clementis clementia non-par dicto gigantum – Taboniae stirpis Gloriæ honoræ domus (meaning Clemente's clemency is said not to match that of giants – not even the glory of the Tabone's pedigree or the honour of the family)The tower was built for defensive purposes since the area was prone to attacks by the Barbary pirates.
Located in Ħal Tmin, the chapel is believed to have been built in 1658, since that date is inscribed on its façade beneath Tabone's coat of arms.
A small painting depicting the Pietà, attributed to Francesco Zahra, is also found in the chapel.
