  Thank you,

  Wow, I have been looking for his kever for many years. It?s a shame that its fading away. Do you know what it would cost to replace?

• 5 Baruch A // Jan 22, 2009 at 7:05 pm

  Rabbi Klein:
  Around $5,000.

  Wasn’t he a Rav in New Orleans? Is that near Cincinnati?

• 10 Rabbi Stern // Mar 16, 2010 at 5:53 pm

  He was, as a side (I am assuming that you are not form the US) New Orleans and Cincinnati are on two different sides of the Country. New Orleans is in Louisiana and is down south near the Gulf of Mexico while Cincinnati, Ohio is up north near Michigan which boarders Canada.

  Thanks. So I guess he moved at some point.

  I stumbled upon today the kevarim of Rav Illowys’ children buried in Beth Olam Cemetery (near Rav Kursheedt z”l’s kever). 2 sons and i’m almost sure a daughter too (a 4th one who died in 1975 must have been a grandchild, i don’t have a clear picture of his marker).

  Baruch, How do upload here pictures within this post.

• 13 Farshlufen // Jul 5, 2010 at 2:52 pm

  Asher, send to R’ Baruch @ his email.

  I beleive that only the admin can upload it here.

• 14 Farshlufen // Jul 5, 2010 at 3:04 pm

  Henry Illoway passed away in NY on or around Jan 15 1932.

• 15 asher // Jul 5, 2010 at 3:26 pm

  Sure, I’m sending the photos to Baruch as we speak.
  Henry Illoway, actually “Dr” Henry passed away Januray 15 1932. His brother Jabob L. pa’d April 30th 1907. I hope to be there tomorrow and get a better shot of their sister and grandchild (grandchild’s matzeivo is half covered)

  Thanks Asher.

• 19 YD Miller // Jul 8, 2010 at 11:16 am

  Thanks Asher, I see the daughters tumbstone only half, Nettie was her english name, what was her Hbrew name and who was she married to?

• 20 asher // Jul 8, 2010 at 12:48 pm

  You are both welcome. I went back today and have a full picture of Nettie’s kever, will upload later as i just got into office.

  YD, Henry and Nettie are buried right next to each other… does that suggest that both were single? Their brother Yaakov is buried right next to his wife. From what I gather, Yaakov Leib had a son and a daughter, both married and buried in the same place – i have pictures of all and will also upload IY”H.

  Thanks so much Asher for the photos.

  On your question about the name “Gertrude” whther it is a Hbrew name, the answer of course is NO, this is of a German origin (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gertrude_(given_name) ) the question is if this was used as a given name in Yiddish as well.

  I dont see this name mentioned in Bies Schmuel which is the most common refrence for Given Names (needed for writing a Get) I do see a similar name Gutreid (see http://www.hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=8084&st=&pgnum=72)
