About Jewish cemeteries in Poland : kirkuty.xip.pl

Through this survey, I have gotten to know the efforts many others put into documenting the Jewish history of Poland, and in particular the Jewish Cemeteries.

One such website is  about Jewish cemeteries in Poland
http://www.kirkuty.xip.pl
where Krzysztof  Bielawski now has added a link to our blog.

You can read their texts about Lubaczow in Polish
http://www.kirkuty.xip.pl/lubaczow
or in English
http://www.kirkuty.xip.pl/lubaczowang.htm.

That page has a very clear photo  taken by our friend Bogdan Lisze. It is  the gravestone of Rachel , daughter of Chaim HaLevi
http://www.kirkuty.xip.pl/lubaczow5.htm

Till now I had seen the year of death as תרצ"ג which did not fit the death register. Now I am more inclined to read it as תרע"ג

What do you think?
