Hernandez Family History
Hernandez Name Meaning
Spanish (Hernández) and Jewish (Sephardic): patronymic
from the personal name Hernando (see Fernando). This
surname also became established in southern Italy, mainly in Naples
and Palermo, since the period of Spanish dominance there, and as a
result of the expulsion of the Jews from Spain and Portugal at the end
of the 15th century, many of whom moved to Italy.
