Cemetery Description: |
Donated by Andrea Döhrer, a volunteer for Synagoge Dornum. Their website is http://www.synagoge-dornum.de. This is a list from all the names written on the tombstones that could be brought back to the cemetery in 1945. All the tombstones were moved from the cemetery in 1943. It is believed that about 150 mazzewoth are still missing!!! Additional information provided by Mr. Dieter Peters of Aachen, Germany. For 20 years he has been the cemetery representative and relationship manager of the Landesverbandes der Jüdischen Gemeinden von Nordrhein (the Union of the Jewish communities of the North Rhine area,) and he has amassed a personal database of some 80,000 names and burials. |
