  I am thinking that he was a brother of Rabbi Hurewitz from Hartford:

  And the father’s name is just opposite “Yosef Dov” instead of “Dov Yosef”.

  There was a also a Rabbi in St. Paul Minnesota named Rabbi Yosef Dov Hurwitz.

  I also cant figure out why the time of death is written. On his son, my grandfather’s stone, it is also written

  SP: By stating the time of death (4th hour in the morning), the Yartzeit is properly set on the date of Peteira and not on the following day, as it would be set if the Peteira occurred after nightfall on that day. What is the hour of Peteira on grandfather’s stone?

  My grandfather also has 4 listed, as does my granmother. We never ever saw a time of death listed on any other kevarim, so I doubt this is the reason.
  YD, you are correct. his brother was the rav in Hartford. My great great grandfathers kever on Har Hazeisim has Dov Yosef listed.
