It is also a part of the Current Projects listed in the Welcome section, so you may also click that button to read about other current collaborative projects on which we are working.

The Cemetery Stone Project now encompasses around two dozen pages. Please go to Cemetery Stones, page 1 to find out what is included in these pages, to find the links to all of the pages we have created documenting Lechovicher burials, and to learn about the key role of Tina Levine in creating this tremendous collection of data for Lyakhovichi researchers. She photographed every stone in every NYC plot related to Lyakhovichi and Baranovichi, over 1200 photographs including the ones on this page. Please check the introductary article on that page to learn what the symbols and shapes of the monuments may tell you as well as details we can learn from the Hebrew names on the markers. The database of stones that the webmaster created, based on the images created by Tina Levine, is what you are using as you examine the listings created for Mt Judah Cemetery in New York City, below.

There is an alphabetical burial register of each grave in the Lechovicher plots at Mount Judah Cemetery Burial Register of Bnai Isaac Anshe Lechowitz at Mount Judah Cemetery. You will also see the society gates at that page!

There are three pages of materials related to the Bnai Isaac Anshe Lechowitz burials at Mount Judah Cemetery in New York City.

Cemetery Stones, p7: Mount Judah Cemetery Burial Register and Gates Return to Cemetery Stones, page 1 for a complete list of Lechovicher burials on our site.

This database is divided by by organization, by cemetery, and by the row divisions of that particular set of plots. Mount Judah's Cemetery Register while it tags the entry with a row number, does not seem to reflect an actual row with a first position and last position in that row. Where the webmaster can determine such physical endpoints from the photographs I will note it but right now the ordering is by plot number and may be arbitrarily ended to create a break in the page.

Mount Judah Cemetery was founded in 1908 but did not begin burials until 1912.
The first Lechovicher burial was December 1915 for a 28 year old single male who used the American name of George N. Cohan and the Hebrew name of Nehemiah ben Mordechai Zev. Six months later, the next burial at his side was for a 23 year old male named Morris Feinstein. In that same six month period, burials continued to go on at Washington Cemetery and it seems that Mount Judah was first used by "younger families" where the husband and wife heads of family, had not yet died but needed to find a resting spot for their children. These first two gravemarkers are each formed by a "broken trunk" symbol of a life cut off in its prime, and annotated "son" and "bridegroom." The following two burials are each of young men who died during the Great Flu Epidemic of October 1918. More study should be done to see if the Moutn Judah pattern of adult singles, and young adults with no family predecessors buried in Washington Cemetery, continued.

Repeated Information across the Cemetery Database

If your ancestor is buried in a Lechovicher plot

Does that mean they were definitely from Lyakhovichi? No, it could mean that they were married to a Lechovicher or that a child-in-law was a Lechovicher. Some of the graves used in more recent years could have been donated to someone who had a pressing need, or sold when the original lot holder was buried elsewhere.

If your ancestor is not buried in a Lechovicher plot

Does that mean they were definitely not from Lyakhovichi? No, there are many reasons someone would not be buried in a plot owned by one of the known landsmanschaften. They could have had plots from a spouse's society. They could have enjoyed the company of one group more than another. They could have associated with a non-origin specific group that offered burial plots, they could have lived and died in a city where no such organization existed, they could have died while resident elsewhere. Even when buried amidst a group of landsmen such affiliation might not be immediately obvious if the group to which they belonged identified itself as Minsker, Russian, or some larger group to which Lechovichers also belonged.

GOLDBERG Sarah MJcem1-R-074

Sara b Michael Kadish

beloved aunt
It appears that Sarah Goldberg had a double monument erected for herself and her sister Pauline Hait next to the gravesite of a third sister Tillie Chait who had died first (in early 1920s). Tillie's was a single stone, Pauline and Sarah had a double. The cartouche on the double stone says "Three Sisters."

BRODY Morris MJcem1-R-029

Moshe b Yosef

November 1 1936, age 54 years
beloved husband, devoted father, one of a pair of matching stones for husband and wife; keystone arch at top with the name Brody spelled out in blocks with the O in the keystone; pillars on either side of stone face; willow branch at top; star; cartouche with raised letters "beloved husband devoted father"
HAIT Pauline but burial registry says CHARLES Jacob MJcem1-R-075 and this date. Graves 75 and 76 were listed in the register as those of Jacob Charles and Isaac Chait. But Jacob Charles' gravesite switched with Pauline Hait and Tillie Chait's switched with husband Isaac Chait. These three graves marked "Three Sisters." A complicated grave swap between Jacob Charles, Isaac Chait, and Tillie Chait, to allow the burial of Tillie and two of her sisters adjacent to each other.

CHAIT Tillie
Register says Isaac Chait but it is wife of Isaac Chait - Tillie Chait who has the death date that goes with the burial registry.Graves 75 and 76 were listed in the register as those of Jacob Charles and Isaac Chait. But Jacob Charles' gravesite appears to have been switched with Pauline Hait and Tillie Chait's appears to be switched with her husband Isaac Chait, These three graves are marked in an unusual configuration on the stones with "Three Sisters." The grave in the Burial register attributed to Tillie Chait is that of Jacob Charles.
