Hello again, I am now trying to establish with some more concrete evidence the line for Benvenida Mordechai Levy Montezinos b.1730 d.1790.I have found Oudekerk records that attest to the marriage between her father Mordechai Isaac Levy Montezinos b.1689 d.1785 to Judith de Jacob Falcaho (Falcao) daughter of Jacob Joseph Falcao and Benvenida Moses Rodrigues. Whilst it appears on the marriage record between Benvenida Mordechai Levy Montezinos and Aaron Isaac Senior Coronel that in fact Montezinos was not part of the name, I have checked with the Amsterdam archives and they have confirmed that she was Montezinos and so was her father, it was a clerical error to omit the Montezinos name. The name Levy in the Montezinos may have begun when the explorer and possible progenitor Antonio de Montezinos used Aharon levy as his Hebrew name and latterly conflated the two. The Jewish Encyclopaedia puts his exploring around 1641 so I suspect he was born c.1610. http://www.jewishencyclopedia.com/articles/10962-montezinos-antonio-de-aaron-leviIn the article, A DUTCH BURIAL-GROUND AND ITS ENGLISH CONNECTIONS there is reference to number of Montezinos and there seemed to be some consensus online that the Isaac Levy Montezinos mentioned here and married to Esther Aboab b.1650 and d.1700 was the correct father of Mordechai Isaac Levy Montezinos. I have not found any further proof except this article. I also attach an article where I found reference to the burial of Ester Aboab wife of Yshac Montezinos and his own burial. I also found a David Montezinos b.1623 who had a brother Isaac as his marriage witness from Huelva, Spain. I do not know for certain if he is the correct Isaac but could be http://www.dutchjewry.org/phpr/amsterdam/tim_sephard_marriages/amsterdam_tim_sephard_marriages_view.php?editid1=3846I believe that the line is Benvenida Mordechai Levy Montezinos b.1730 d.1790 daughter of Mordechai Isaac Levy Montezinos b.1689 (maybe in Dinxperlo) d.1785 and Judith de Jacob Falcao (Falcaho)Isaac Levy Montezinos possibly the one mentioned in the and if so he died in 1701 and was married to Dona Ester Aboab b.1650 d.1700. Questions:1. Can anyone advise on different databases where I may find marriage entries or more detail on the identity of those mentioned? In particular 1. Who was Isaac Levy Montezinos who was father to Mordechai Isaac Levy Montezinos? 2. If Ester Aboab was the mother of Mordechai Isaac Levy Montezinos, who were her parents?2. Does anyone have any corresponding or pre-existing research or knowledge on the matter?Thank you all very much for your time and consideration, Happy Chanukah and happy Christmas!Jeremy
