This Sunday, 14 June 2020, on the Sephardic World group, Alain Nedjar will discuss the
newly published book on Livorno marriage certificates. This was several
years work for four people and sets a new standard in Jewish
genealogical publishing. Amongst other achievements, they have been able
to fill gaps left by missing volumes. A masterful achievement. http://eepurl.com/g6H0Zf
This blog is about Sephardic Jewish genealogy and history. In 1492 the Jews were expelled from Spain. They went to Portugal, Italy and the Islamic lands around the Mediterranean. The history of this small community is both fascinating and complex. They were the first globalised people. They were persecuted by the Inquisition. Some identified as Jews, some Christian, while others lost faith and embraced the Enlightenment.
