Bernard Bensaïd's tree makes it possible to document with certainty the presence of the Encaoua lineage in Tlemcen since 1733.
The earliest point of entry is Ephraïm Daniel Encaoua, born in 1733 (Sosa record 1152). He is the father of Moshé Moïse Encaoua, Rabbi, born in 1758 in Talmasan and deceased in 1820 in Rabat.
Meyer Encaoua (1842–1904), husband of Nedjma Darmon; Myriam Encaoua (born 1873 in Rabat); Joseph Encaoua (born 1875 in Salé, deceased 1948 in Rabat); Haïm Encaoua (born 1913 in Salé, deceased 2001 in Dimona, Israël).
The family's presence in Tlemcen is very probably earlier than 1733: rabbinic sources make it possible to trace the presence of a Rav Ephraïm Encaoua in Tlemcen back at least to the 15th century.
