The tombstone for my grandfather, Rebbe Moshe Zvi of Philadelphia clearly states the death as being 25 Sivan. The database incorrectly says 23 Kislev
Corrected.

Does anyone know the exact location of the grave?
They are buried next to my great and grand parents in Philadelphia. The Rebbe was sandik at my fathers bris and my father became very close to him growing up in South Philadelphia. The rebbe gave my father the Tolna dynasty heirloom of the first Tolna rebbes shtreimel which my father held onto for 60 years before turning it over to the Tolna rebbe of Ashdod about 16 years ago.
If you have the building of the cemetery behind you, Go down the road to the left, Which is the end of the cemetery. The Tolna Rebbes are at the corner of the third dirt rd. There is a big tree on the corner. The section before is H.
