Kibart Cemetery Restoration
Project
-
- Samuel Rachlin and Joseph Rosin have started
to plan a restoration project of the Kibart Jewish Cemetery. Sam
had visited the cemetery and took the above photos in the summer
of 2001, and was motivated to initiate the project. As of November
2001, the Sam and Joseph are proceeding with the project, having
identified local Kibart residents who will help with the project
and have estimated the cost. If you are interested in donating to
the project, please contact Sam Rachlin at SamRach@aol.com. Further
information will be posted here when available.
