Sepharad was the ancient name used for the countries of Spain and Portugal.You will find the Leal name listed as those who received some kind of sentence for being Separdic Jews in Portugal during this chaotic period of European history.
After being tossed from Spain because of religious discrimination they went to Portugal.Portugal is the stage where some kind of metamorphosis of family history and religion began to take shape.Christianity replaced the old religion and with migration throughout the world it was forgotten or erased from memory.
