Randy Schoenberg Erica Howton here's another one for you.

The description on Zerachiah Gracian-Hen haLevi of Girona (Ba'al haMaor) clearly gives his ancestry back a few generations.

It does not match with the Jaim-related tree that is associated with the profile, and which links back to the Gaonim.

The curator note:

This is the Master Profile for Zerachiah Gracian-Hen haLevi of Girona (Ba'al haMaor).
Curator Note (10/30/2015):

  • ****** Please do not make any changes to this profile *******
    • ***** Gracian and Hen Families are working together ******
      • **** to correct the mistakes that are reflected here ******

Can those people be raised up for updates?

My guess is that this was a merge of two real profiles, which were then attached to fake ancestry. Typical Jaim methodology, typical resulting mess.

There is a jumble of right things, wrong things and a completely wrong profile here ...
In order to correct, must first look at the information in my heritage and check its authenticity ... I do not have a subscription, so I can not look

If anyone has a subscription, I'll be happy if him/she pass on the information here about Rivka Heller Wallerstein, 1462 - 1515
https://www.myheritage.co.il/names/rivka_heller

I am interested in comparing the information, to what is also written in the book
תולדות משפחת מונק
And in other books as well

Wiki entry is here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zerachiah_ha-Levi_of_Girona

There's no Gracian-Hen in his name. They had the family name - nickname, not proper surname - of Yitzhari.

Zerachiah ha-Levi's ancestry is as follows (no maternal line known as far as I can tell):

Zerachia
-- Isaac
---- Zerachia
------ Shem Tov

Many Thanks,
I will try to check and verify the information with the rabbinic literature, then we can find out what is the right information and what is wrong

Even now I can say that I do not understand this profile, what is the intention of the profile opener + the information in it is incorrect
Oroved Barzellai al-Bargeloni Qadi ben Reuben

Father of
Yitzchak Ha'Levi Hayizhari ben Reuben, Bailiff Perfet

was:
Rabbi Shem Tov Halevi

The question that I will try to check is first of all in this branch backwards:,
The mother of Rivka Heller Wallerstein was indeed Rachael Bat Yosef Ha-Levi.
.
From what I remember, the Halevi family (in this branch) are from the Yitzhari family, and they are also descendants of Shmuel the prophet ... but I need to check if I remember correctly.

Some time ago, Randy deleted the connection between the Horowitz family and the Halevi family from Spain.

Although I am a descendant of the Halevi Horowitz family from several branches, I have no information that I heard from my father in which I can say whether the family's roots are indeed from Spain or whether there is a mistake
...
Now in Geni the connection appears through Rachel Heller Wallerstein's mother, and I will try to find information about her mother (her father was certainly Rabbi Yom Tov Heller Wallerstein)...

And one more thing: to be precise, I was wrong before and the father of
Yitzchak Ha'Levi Hayizhari ben Reuben, Bailiff Perfet
was:
Rabbi Zarchia Halevi the son of Rabbi Shem Tov Halevi

I will try to check in the next few days

I severed the parents of Rachel Heller-Wallerstein

She may need to be deleted. Probably confused with some of the other Rachels
