The NAME BACA and its ORIGEN

After so much research within the Marrano / Anusim names and others, I have seen many changes like that. Like Ventura, was BEN JEHUDA, and the like. Another is Leiva, which are LEVY, Mejia comes from the Word Mashiach, which in spanish will be spelled "Meshija" which means messiah.

There is others which Spanish their ideas. Baca is no exeption. There is no other Object spelled like that in Spanish. YET in hebrew, means wailed. It has to do with the fact that they were forced to conversion because of the catolic inquision, crusades. In any case, my family still has the stories of thenselves been Jews in Spain, from the Tribe of Judah, and direct decendants of Mary, the mother of the Mashiach.

There is still a few Baca's who live as Jews, as me, and others. I do not know if there is a Baca in Israel YET, but I love to be one of the first.

There is also history of some Baca's been burn in the stake by the so holy catolic church. One of them was Cristobal Baca in Mexico.

Do some reseach. What my family tells me we can from spain, to Italy, then Peru, and Nicaragua. Where I was born.

Shalom.
