The Saga of One Family's Dispersion Around the World


Circa 1738 B.C.E. to 2012 C.E.

A website specifically dedicated to reuniting the Perezite Diaspora.

In approximately 1738 BCE, Perez Ibn JUDAH (Phares), son of Judah ibn Jacob ISRAËL and progenitor of the Perezite Clan, is said to have been born near Hebron, Palestine.
(Genesis 38.29)

In the 37 centuries since, his progeny have spread around the world. First to Egypt and the Middle East, then on to Spain and Western Europe, later to Eastern Europe and Russia, the Americas, and with the Spanish Empire, as far away as the Philippines.

The purpose of this site is to open a worldwide channel of communication and dialog among the scattered members of this great extended family. In the near future it will include dozens of family biographies, oral histories, timelines, research papers, genealogical records, as well as links to other sites.

Please join us in "virtually" reuniting the Perezite Clan
by building a truly nonsectarian online community.
