Dear Mark

 

While  on the subject of cemeteries, here is a recent description of the
Elbing Jewish cemetery founded in 1812.   As is commonplace with Jewish
cemeteries  in Poland, the gravestones have been removed.  A parts shop was
erected over the graves and apparently still operates.

Leider auf Englisch...

For those who have been discussing cemeteries and what might remain of them
in the old (former) German East, here are three posts I have on the subject
(along with photos). The photos and stories involve both the Mennonite and
Lutheran Cemeteries of Zeyer, West Prussia:
