I have just visited the 2nd oldest Jewish cemetery (the oldest was badly destroyed years ago) here and have taken many pictures. The cemetery is being repaired by the Jewish foundation and they are repairing stones throughout the cemetery. Most stones are in Hebrew which I do not read and some have a taped number on the grave marker that makes me feel someone is doing a more indepth study. I know I have family in this graveyard but have not identified the exact spot yet. If anyone has more information or wishes to see the pictures please let me know. Dorann

Can you upload your photos to the project please?

Certainly Randy - can they be emailed to an address - if not where should I send them/upload them? Also Magda Simonovska (m.simonovska@o2active.cz) who was with us is willing to look for and photograph specific graves stones if anyone would like that. Dorann

Dear Dorann. Thank you for the information. My grandfather's great grandparents are burried ther and I never found their graves yet.
Please if you can send the photos so I can maybe find them. I read Hebrew and you can tell me the names that you are looking for and if I come across with them I will let you know.

Harel - I have post some general photos and I will post a few detailed ones when I reach home tomorrow. Magda found a website that shows where in the grave yard the person is buried. She will return to take photos of the specific grave stone and you can email her your family names and she may be able to find them for you or at least find the spot if no stone is there. She also found may new connected names to my family which led me to the New Jewish Cemetery today to see additional family graves. They are well researched. Dorann
