Our Sephardic Heritage

This website, www.bensignor.us, is devoted to the family of Eli and Adele Bensignor,their three adult children Laurence Bensignor, Rick Bensignor and Lisa Bensignor Gibson, and their respective families.

We believe, as you will learn in these pages, that we are direct descendants of Don Abraham Seneor of Spain, who together with Don Isaac Abravanel, was the leader of the Jewish community in Spain leading up to and at the time of the Spanish Expulsion
of Jews in 1492.

We are a family filled with pride in our history and legacy as Sephardic Jews… in Spain, in Turkey and for the last century, in America.

Welcome to our story.
