ROW 41, GRAVE 6: Josef Leib MEILER

ROW 41, GRAVE 6

The photo above shows how the gravestone looks today.

At the archives at Yad Vashem they have a series of black and white photos taken in Lubaczow in 1964 - many  from the cemetery.

The photo below gives us the opportunity to see how 50 years affect the gravestones, but also helps to read the texts on the three gravestones.

Thanks to Yad Vashem for giving permission to publish this photo.

Look at the gravestone to the left.
