I was just looking for something on the internet and decided to see if I can get any information about my maternal grandfather. He was nifter when I was nine and I have never visited his grave as in those years children were not permitted and I’ve been in Israel since 1961. I have a sister in Monsey to whom I will send this page.
Thank you so much for this page. I will send it promptly to my grandchildren and my sister’s greatgrandchildren too.
Linda, do you have any information about your grandfather? Where was he from? When did he arrive in America? Who was his wife?
Thanks.

Do you know if he came from Lithuainia and if his wife was Ada Barrone Levine??
Regarding Rabbi Alexander Levine A”H- he came with his wife Minnie (Menucha) from Kovno around 1912-1913. His wife died in her mid thirties probably around 1925-1926. He lived to 1952.
Just found this site. First time i’m seeing a picture of my great grandfather’s tomb. Being a kohen, i’ve never been inside the cemetery. My cousin and I are the only two named after him, as far as I know.
