CEMETERY PICTURES

Thanks to Daniel Goldberg, (paternal grandparents - Harry Goldberg & Chaike Sokol - both born in Boyarka), we have pictures of the
monument that is in the Boyerker Benevolent Society section of the Beth David Cemetery. Beth David Cemetery is located at 300
Elmont Road, Elmont, New York. The monument lists the names of the many people who were murdered in the pogroms of 1918, 1919,
1920 and 1921. The following photos are just a few, of the many, that Dan took at the Boyerker section of the cemetery. I have created
a list of all the names that appear on the monument. (Go to Databases Page)

Click on photo for an enlarged view.

	The monuments are inscribed in both Hebrew and in English.		"These are the names of our people who were brutally murdered in the pogrom of 1918 (5678) in the town of Boyerka, Cull of Zvenigrodka, Russia."

	In this photo you can see that the names of those killed weren't always given or known. "Bentziys son in law" and "Levi the Shames" are examples.		More names from the pogrom of 1921 (5781)

	In this photo, we again see that full names are not given. "Sarah and 2 sons" and "2 daughter in laws & 2 children" are engraved in the monument.
