The book My 15 Grandmothers takes the reader through an exciting
maze of intrigue, where literally every stone that is turned,
yields a new twist in the personal journey of Genie Milgrom. Having
been brought up in a Roman Catholic family in Havana, Cuba and
descending from Spanish ancestry did not ensure that her life would
be lived within that realm. In response to strong feelings and an
affinity towards Judaism, her search for her family's past, took on
a deeper significance as she researched her maternal lineage and
not only discovered but documented and verified her Pre-Inquisition
Spanish Roots to Fifteenth Century Spain and Portugal where they
lived first as Jews, then as Crypto Jews and finally as Roman
Catholics. She was able to unravel the web of lies and deceit that
her family had spun around themselves in order to survive the
Spanish Inquisition .They lived with one foot in each world as they
converted to Catholicism openly while secretly practicing their own
religion underground. Genie was fortunate enough to grab the brass
ring that was thrown in the air over 500 years ago.
