  What is the word after the yearתרע”ד is it bed beach or maybe Bethpage?

• 2 Farshlufen // Jun 4, 2009 at 9:26 am

  If he was 80 in תרע”ד then he was born as early as תקצ”ד.

  His son, Rav Yehuda Zundel was a Rabbi in Brooklyn at Congregation Chevra Kadisha. He also wrote a safer titled Ragshi Yehuda. Interestingly, the safer has a memorial page for his father (Meshulam Fivel) and just like on the tombstone there is no mention of the grandfather. Another thing, the safer was published in 1915 and lists the Rav’s yartziet as 13 Iyar.

  I think it says “Bethpage”

  There’s an Anshei Lubowitz burial section at the Old Mt. Carmel cemetery in Queens. The shul was in Brownsville, Brooklyn on 195 Watkins Street. My great-great grandfather was a mispallel at that shul. Does anyone know if any shul records still exist or if there any photos?

  R’ Yisroel, for photos check with NYC municipal records.

  They have a section at Beth David as well. Rabbi Tzvi Hirsh Dachowitz, one of the last Moreh Dasrah of the congregation, and one of the leading Rabbanim of Brownsville is buried in that location. The shule records may be with the City or State’s recording office. Prior to liquidating they would have had to contact the State Attorney Generals office.
  Does anyone know if the building is still standing?

  I wrote THE LOST SYNAGOGUES OF BROOKLYN. Sorry to inform you that the shul at 195 Watkins St. no longer stands. In my book I featured text and photos of those buildings of former synagogues that still stand. I did mention a few others in passing.

  Quoting Chaim B. above:
  “His son, Rav Yehuda Zundel was a Rabbi in Brooklyn at Congregation Chevra Kadisha. He also wrote a safer titled Ragshi Yehuda.

  Does anyone know where this shul was/is located?

• 18 asher // Oct 29, 2009 at 6:50 pm

  Never mind, Yisroel answered had answered this above.

• 19 YD Miller // Nov 8, 2009 at 12:31 am
