[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Surname David
Re: surname David, this response from my friend who researches crypto Jews/conversos: "I've not seen the surname, David, in NM or in any other crypto-Jewish context. Nor in an Old Christian context for that matter. I imagine that there would be some kind of converso connection, depending on when and where it was found. When I get back to the office I can look it up in some etymological dictionaries." I will pass on any more info to the group that he finds.

I was going to suggest this theory as well. I'll check with my sephardic Jewish expert.

It seems to be relativly common Portuguese surname. I put it in the Immigration search for Ancestry and got over 20 returns.

Hi, I thought David was originally a Jewish name since in the Bible he killed Goliath and eventually became king. He was also the father of Solomon. I think this predates Welsh history.
