Dear Folks,
I am assisting a friend who of Shepardic Jewish background. His mother,
Miriam Lurie, claims descent from Isaac ben Solomon Luria (1534-1572), a
famous Kabbalist rabbi, and some kind of kinship with Karl Marx. Royal
descent from the House of David is claimed for Luria.

Any suggestions or referrals?

I am new to Jewish genealogy, however I have been researching
French-Canadian genealogy for ~30 years and am familiar with standards of
proof and historical research. No descent from Adam and Eve here! I can
read
French and Latin and my friend can probably manage Spanish. I use The
Master
Genealogist, among other tools, if anyone has a database they would be
willing to share.

TIA

The Lurias were a medieval rabbinic dynasty.
Rottenberg, Dan, _Finding Our Fathers: A guidebook to Jewish
genealogy_, Genealogical Publishing Co.,
Inc., (Baltimore, 1998), 0-8063-1151-7, has a series of charts showing the
inter-related Sephardic and Ashkenazi
rabbinic dynasties from RaShI to the grt.-gr.-parents of Karl Marx.
Rosenstein, Neil, _The Unbroken Chain_, C. I. S. Communications, Inc,
(United States, 1990), 0-9610578-4-8,
shows the descendants of the a rabbi from the
Luria-Katzenellenbogen-Treves nexus, (I forget, now, exactly which
one), to Karl Marx, the Countess Mountbatten of Burma, some Rothschilds
and many Chasidic rabbinic dynasties,
as well as, IIRC, the Maharal of Prague. Many of these rabbinic dynasties
can be found in the _Encyclopaedia
Judaica_ and _The Jewish Encyclopedia_.
Rashi claimed descent from R. Yonatan haSandalar, (Rabbi Jonathan the
Sandlemaker), one of the Tannaim,
(Rabbinic scholars whose teachings were central to the compilation of the
Talmud), who was a member of the
Patriarchal dynasty of Yehudah haNasi, founded by Hillel the Great, who
claimed descent from David. The Lurias,
Shaltiels, Charlaps, Iacchias, ibn Dauds, the Maharal of Prague and others
claimed descent from David, all
through the last Exilarchs, (Reshim Galuta/Roshim haGolah), of Babylon.
