~ Simer Cemetery ~
Jewish families that lived in Simer, and possibly other nearby villages, used the Simer cemetery as the final resting place for their loved ones.
The Jewish cemetery is located outside of the town and seemed somewhat maintained.
In the documents section of the "Other" tab, you will find a link to a U.S. Commission Report completed in 2005 that attempted to document Jewish Cemeteries (and Synagogues and Mass Grave Sites) in Ukraine. This cemetery is not listed as well as many other village cemeteries of the Zakarpats'ka oblast.
