Talk:Uriah P. Levy

I deleted the topic of Hispanic Americans in the Navy. Clearly Levy and his great-nephew identified as Jewish American, and were here for many generations. If people want to classify them otherwise, they need to provide reliable sources.Parkwells (talk) 18:55, 7 April 2011 (UTC)


 * On paper there were no Jews in England from 1290 to 1656, when Oliver Cromwell welcomed some of them. When did Commodore Levy's Sephardic ancestors take up residence in England?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.85.148.202 (talk) 17:52, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

"Prevailed against anti-Semitism"
What does "prevailed against the antisemitism he faced among some of his fellow naval officers" mean? Whatever it means, I doubt that it should be included in the introduction.Royalcourtier (talk) 03:21, 30 December 2015 (UTC)
