The descendants of Jacob Lindegaard in Spain and France
Jacob Lindegaard settled and married in Andalucia, Spain. His son Pedro Enrique Lindegaard Caraballo became a pastor and eventually moved to Madrid, marrying Adela Diaz Yepes. During the civil war Pedro Enrique sought refuge with his family in Barcelona. Jacques Delpech, a French pastor who had been helping Spanish protestants, long-persecuted in Catholic Spain, came to Barcelona to convince and assist the family to relocate to France.
