Project Zikaron’s “Cemeteries” tab includes works like this scarce volume which documents the full tombstone inscriptions of 1,422 men buried in the Jewish cemetery of Kielce (Kelts in Yiddish), Poland between the mid-1870s until the late 1920s. Compiled in 1931, this book is particularly valuable since the cemetery was almost completely destroyed during WWII and under the communists in the 1970s, with only a few hundred tombstones, many broken, remaining.
