Hello, I have recently learned that my mother has a small (but “significant” as Ancestry puts it) percentage of Sephardic DNA. Upon asking family about our ancestry, I found the name Carbajal. Upon researching the name in relation to Judaism I found Luis Carvajal the Younger (along with his manuscript, the oldest known Jewish document in the Americas). Do you have any lectures about Luis de Carvajal and crypto-Jews and possible descendants of the family? Can you do a lecture about Kyis the Younger and translate the manuscript? I know they aren’t the only Carvajals of the time but I am so intrigued.
