Prior to the erection of the cemetery monument, photographs were taken of each gravestone or fragment. Fragments were painstakingly matched where possible. The stones were then translated and efforts were made to identify those who the stones memorialized. As many of the stones do not have surnames, it was not readily possible to identify them all.

However, extracts of records in the Wyszków death registers enabled the JRI-Poland team to both identify additional stones as well as provide new information for the tombstones previously identified. A star (*) before and after the text indicates new information.

Notes:

• Surnames reflect spelling used in the vital record registers of Wyszków and may not correspond to current surnames of descendants and/or relatives in other countries.
• While buried in the Wyskzów cemetery, some of these individuals were from nearby towns and villages.
• Where age of deceased is not indicated, this indicates that the age did not appear in the index page; therefore, the actual records must be extracted to obtain this and other information such as mother, spouse and, in some cases, surviving children.

This tombstone matching effort utilizes the JRI-Poland database of the indices of the Jewish vital records of Wyszków, made possible through the kind cooperation of the Polish State Archives.

JRI-Poland invites all researchers and families with an interest in Wyszków and surrounding towns and villages to be part of this unique project to identify the stones and remnants of stones mounted in the beautiful monument at the site of the Wyszków Jewish cemetery. Here is how you can participate:

• Funds are needed to extract many more records in the effort to identify additional tombstones. It is the only way to determine which Yaakov is the son of which Yitzhak when there are ten similar given name combinations and few if any surnames. To contribute, click here.
• Efforts should be made to find relatives of those whose tombstones have been identified so that they, in their own way, may memorialize a family member
