Jewish Heritage

I have been trying to prove that David Emanuel is of Jewish heritage for a number of years. As I am a descendant of the Emanuel family myself, I have a keen interest in this topic. There just isn't any hard evidence. This myth seems to have developed over one hundred years ago, and I think I may have contributed to perpetuating this myth since I created this article! Recently I have discovered additional information that will hopefully clear all this up. I am working on getting good sources together and will soon update the article with this new information.

Is it true that Emanuel's mother was Ruth Littleberry, and that his full name was David Littleberry Emanuel? All Hallow's Wraith (talk) 11:39, 21 February 2015 (UTC)Reply
I have seen trees on Ancestry.com with that information. I have never seen any documented sources that confirm that. I do not know if it is true. There are many trees on Ancestry filled with unreliable and unsourced information. H2O (talk) 00:04, 23 February 2015 (UTC)Reply
