Osias KLEIN was from Jaslo, around 157 km east south of Lubaczow.





These are the photos of the gravestone of Ozjasz Klein I took in May 2013. 
The stone itself is redish, and the text does not stand out clear.
The text is in Hebrew, as is customary, but at the very base of the stone the name is written in Latin letters.

According to Pages of Testimony submitted by Mr. Lerer, the couple Pinchas and Ester Klein and their children  became Holocaust victims.  Pinchas Klein was born around 1895. His father's name is not mentioned on the Page of Testimony. Pinchas Klein was a wood merchant.

Checking Jewish Records Indexing Poland for "Klein, Jaslo", I found that Pinkas KLEIN had married in 1920 in nearby Jaroslaw.
Pinkas Klein is listed as the son of Osias KLEIN and Chaje GELLES, born 1896, and his bride as Ema (Erna?) TAUBE, born 1897, daughter of Szymon TAUBE and Sydonia LEHRFREUND.
Ester is Erna is Ema?

Sydonia TAUBE died in 1929 and here is her grave

M. Lehrer listed Szymon TAUBE as a widower and as a Holocaust victim on a Page of Testimony he submitted to Yad Vashem in 1957.
