Sephardic Surnames from a number of Jewish Sephardic sources

Background

To help my fellow researchers I will list Sephardic names that I have found to appear in several printed sources useful to genealogists. This will take some time, so please be patient. Hopefully this will be of value to researchers of Sephardic families. Use the “find” feature of your browser to look for the name you are interested in. Again suggestions are welcomed as we all try to help each other. Donations of lists you have developed are even more welcome!

Arie, Gabriel: "Genealogie de la famille ARIE de 1766 a 1929". Pamphlet 1929

This is the family tree of the ARIE Sephardic family from Samakov, Bulgaria.
Gabriel Arie (1863-1939), author of the pamphlet, was a well known teacher and director of Alliance Israelite Universelle schools in various countries.

The information was extracted by Dov Cohen in Israel from the limited print pamphlet (title listed above) and Dov very kindly supplied me with the Gedcom file he created, (which can be downloaded by clicking here), from which I extracted the surnames listed below.
