Ten days ago I wrote in my facebook about the falsifications of genealogies of Spanish conversos that have been made to aply to the Spanish citizenship on the base of having Sephardic ancestry according to one Spanish law of 2015. In practice, the benefits of this law have been surprisingly extended to descendants of conversos, so Judaizers as no Judaizers. I thought that this fraud had been stopped by the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the FCJE, but I have verified that certificates of Sephardic origin are given yet to peoples whose dossiers are based in these false Jewish origins. The cases that I know are from Colombia, where there is an important business around this matter, but it is possible that this fraud affected other Spanish-American countries. The case that I haved studied the best is the one of the Gomez de Castro family, who were some of the first settlers in Santa Fe de Antioquia and Medellin, Colombia, at the beginning of the 17th century. It is said that Cristobal Gomez de Castro the Old (born in Spain about 1595 and married in the area of Antioquia about 1620 to Catalina Marin or Macheo, not Matheo) passed to the Spanish Indies in 1607 and that he was a son of the converso doctor Diego Gomez, from Toledo, dead about 1535 (from the Abulafia family). This last statement is obviously impossible, because there is a gap of 60 years, and the Cristobal de Castro who travelled to America in 1607 was a merchant, not a farmer nor rancher, who married in Cartagena de Indias to Elvira de Barrionuevo and was active yet in his job in 1633. Among other falses proofs, it is mentioned also the summary of one letter by the Council of the Inquisition in Spain to the Court of the Holy Office in Cartagena de Indias in 1652 where the Council ordered to arrest Cristobal Gomez and Rodrigo Nuñez, accused of Judaism. Falsifiers claim that this Cristobal Gomez was the son of Cristobal the Old who lived in Medellin, but it is likely that Rodrigo Nuñez was the merchant from Murcia, Spain, who travelled to the area of Cartagena de Indias in 1637, son of Diego Rodriguez and Isabel Gomez. So, it is likely too that this Judaizer Cristobal Gomez was a relative of Rodrigo Nuñez and not Cristobal Gomez de Castro the Young. As you can see, these proofs are based just in coincidences of names, countries and epochs, and vanished when someone research seriously about them.
