The Jews Who Left Spain and Their Genealogy
Since the destruction of the second temple in 70 d.e.c., Jews have moved across the world. In every place they were forced to embrace local customs and behave according to other people laws. This was not different for Jews expelled from Spain in 1492. This lecture will take us on a virtual journey in time and space looking at Jewish names, the reasons for them, how they changed, and in many cases, the trips and clues they provide for your family research
