Title: Romanian Jews are Sephardic?
Post by: White Israelite on March 18, 2010, 03:54:02 PM
Can anyone tell me more about this?

What happened to the Sephardic community of Romania? I hear very little about Romanian Jews but I trace much of my fathers ancestry to there and apparently many came there from Turkey and the Balkans. What's interesting is Romanians speak a latin language like Italy/France/Spain and are darker than much of the population in their region.
