Eight Centuries of a Sephardic Family by Jeffrey Malka PDF Summary

Book Description: It is rare that a consistently hereditary and unchanged surname can be traced through archival records for eight centuries. Malka is one of the very few such old surnames. This is what the award winning Jeffrey Malka describes in this profusely documented and illustrated book. Using archival and other records, Dr. Jeffrey S. Malka, an internationally recognized pioneer and expert on Sephardic genealogy summarizes some of his extensive research on the Malka family. The book begins during the tumultuous 13th and 14th centuries in Aragon, Catalonia, and Navarra, where numerous records are found of Malka families in various occupations. The book then continues with the family's time in Morocco, and follows the author's own branch in colonial British East Africa, Switzerland, and the United States. It contains brief histories of Jewish life in Spain and Morocco as well as biographies and vignettes of the author's childhood in colonial East Africa, medical school in Switzerland, a stint in a US military hospital in Japan during the Vietnam war, and finally life in America.
