Note on Husband: Daniel MENDOZA

The Spanish and Portuguese Synagogue in Amsterdam on the 12 September 1714 paid 53 florins to Daniel Mendoza to go to Londres con sua familia (London with his family).

Some research suggest that Daniel is the son of Antonio (David) DeCASTRO (MENDOZA). Other researchers differ on his ancestors.

Note on Child 1: Aaron MENDOZA

Father was a Daniel but this paternal connection unconfirmed. The Amsterdam Sephardi community found it difficult to cope with the influx of destitute former New Christians, and people were paid to move elsewhere.

Aaron arrive in London in 1714. He wrote the first book published by the London Spanish & Portugese Congregation, a translation of part of the Shukhan Aruch. This was published in 1733 to help ‘vindos’ (new arrivals) understand kashrut³

Note on Child 2: Solomon MENDOZA

Circumcised 8th September 1712 in Amsterdam, Holland.
