During July 19-25, 2000 a roots-trip took place by "Bamesila", an
organization of highschool student volunteers from Israel, headed by Rabbi
Israel Taub. The trip passed through Molodechno, Volozhin, Borisov, Zembin,
Lepel, Vitebsk and Orsha. The students visited the old cemeteries in these
places, cleaned there and copied names from the gravestones. Rabbi Israel Taub
gave me the lists of names and asked me to publicize it here.
There might be some errors in the lists of names because of the difficulty in
reading the gravestones as well as some difficulty in reading the handwritten
lists of names. The lists are only partial and does not cover all which is found
in all the cemeteries.
