Since the beginning of my search for my roots I have been wondering where the family originally came from
Some are convinced that the source of the family is from Spain, others claim that it is a mistake and Horowitz is an Ashkenazi family
This morning I came across this article:
http://www.shlomo.horwitzfam.org/in_the_beginning.htm
Because I am a descendant of the family from several branches both through my grandmother and through my grandfather, it is interesting and intriguing for me to know
Does anyone know solid information on where the family originated from?

thanks,
The information you uploaded is well known to me, but geni cut the family, and it appears from Rabbi Joseph HaLevi, [Gd.father 1st Horowitz] from the town of Hořovice
There is no mention of the continuation of the family from Spain (?)
