| Cemetery Description: |
Beth Israel Cemetery, Area 2 Left section, 232 Fuller Street, Everett, MA, USA. 660 burials total.
Beth Israel on JOWBR is broken up into 5 geographical areas for the purpose of documenting this cemetery’s multiple areas and lots which no longer display all of the original signage. Upon entering the Everett Jewish Cemeteries main gate off of Fuller Street, Beth Israel Cemetery Area 2 Left is the second Beth Israel area on the left after 'Netzah Israel'. It is bound at the back by 'Knights of Zaslav', and on the right by Montefiore Cemetery. It houses original lot 29 and possibly others. Row numbers in this set of records are counted from the main cemetery vehicle access way called " Memorial Way " and the sidewalk within the cemetery, and do not correspond to original cemetery plot numbers. There is an overturned headstone that cannot be read at Row 17 Left, Plot #4. Beth Israel is independently owned and managed by the Beth Israel Corporation established by founder Solomon Slotnick after the initial 1919 purchase of over 50 acres of land for the establishment of Jewish cemeteries easily accessible to Boston. Lots were made available for resale to the many Synagogues, Societies and Landsmanschaften in the Boston area. The properties are serviced by The Fuller Service Company, and further information can be found at http://everettjewishcemeteries.com/. This set of data, photographs, transcription and translation provided by Pauline Shapiro Flanagan, a great granddaughter to immigrants from Krakenava and Anyksciai Lithuania who settled in Chelsea in the early 1900s.
