The JMM maintains a database of burials at Baltimore Jewish cemeteries, including partial listings from the three large cemetery complexes where most of Baltimore's Jewish cemeteries are located: Rosedale, Herring Run-Bowley's Lane, and Hebrew Mt. Carmel (German Hill Road). The JMM also has records of the now-defunct Jack Lewis Funeral Home from, roughly, 1924-1939 and 1955-1965, and an obituary index from the Baltimore Jewish Times from 1940-1955. The only Jewish funeral home in Baltimore today is Sol Levinson & Bros., founded in the 1890s. Levinson's has records dating back to the 1920s and will do look-ups. Their phone number is 410-653-8900. Source: Deb Weiner, Family History Coordinator. dweiner@jewishmuseummd.org [December, 2004]

• Annapolis National Cemetery: Location: Corner of West Street and Taylor Avenue, Annapolis, MD. Contact: Ms. Jones at Baltimore National Cemetery, 5501 Frederick Avenue. Baltimore, MD 21228. Telephone: 410-644-9696. The cemetery opened during the Civil War (1860's) and closed to burials in the 1970's. The Records of Interment from this cemetery are maintained at the Baltimore National Cemetery. These computerized records only include name, rank, organization or vessel, date of death, and plot location. This information was "supposedly" taken from the "application for burial". The headstone descriptions are not available in the data. The applications for burial for all before 1996 [?] have been destroyed and were not microfilmed according to Ms. Jones). Unfortunately, these destroyed applications for burial had information such as religion, next of kin, date of birth, etc. The only way identify Jewish graves in this cemetery is walk the cemetery and locate Star of David or other indications on the stones.
• Hillcrest Memorial Cemetery (Jewish Sections): Location: 1911 Forest Drive, Annapolis, MD 21401. Contact: Jack Maynard. Telephone: 410-267-7540. Temple Beth Shalom (1461 Baltimore Annapolis Blvd, Arnold, MD 21012) established the Reform Jewish Section about 1990. (Tel 410-974-0900, Rabbi Robert Klensin). There were only about 20 burials in this section as of 1999. Congregation Kol Ami established the Conservative Jewish Section in the late 1990s. (1909 Hidden Meadow Lane, Annapolis. MD 21401. Tel. 410-266-6006. Rabbi David Bockman, tel. 410-266-9139.) There were no burials in the Conservative section as of 1999. Mr. Maynard indicated he has complete manual records in his office. He said the Congregations also have records.
Kneseth Israel Congregation Cemetery: {10282} Location: near the intersection of Route 450 and West Street extended, near the Annapolis Mall. Contact: David Earle, Chairman Cemetery Committee, 680 Americana Drive. Annapolis. MD 21401. Telephone: 410-280-9817. Kneseth Israel (1-125 Spa Road, Annapolis, MD 21401. tel. 410-263-3924) is an Orthodox congregation. The earliest burial dates from the 1920s. Eric Goldstein, a member of the congregation, has done a lot of work on the history of the Jews of Annapolis and the surrounding area. He could be a valuable resource for identifying burial locations of Colonial Jews. The files formerly kept at Mr. Earle's place of business (Earle's Moving and Storage, Morland Parkway, Annapolis) included records of all burials at the Kneseth Israel Congregation Cemetery. The records, destroyed a number of years ago, have been reconstructed. He agreed to fully cooperate with IAJGS. "Files for Congregation Kneseth Israel Cemetery are no longer kept in Mr. Earle's office. Contact the synagogue office for current information."

• Crownsille Veterans Cemetery: 1080 Sunrise Beach Road, Crownsville, MD 21032. Telephone: 410-987-6320. Contact: George Tittle, Superintendent; also Richard Shatzer, Maryland Veterans Commission, Rm. 110, 31 Hopkins Plaza, Baltimore, MD 21201. The Maryland Veterans Commission runs this cemetery, one of about seven such state-run veterans cemeteries in Maryland such as the one in Owings Mills. These are not be confused with the Federal National Veterans Cemeteries located in Annapolis, Baltimore (Frederick Ave) and others. The Crownsville Veterans Cemetery was established about 1990 and has a separate Jewish section surrounded by shrubbery. Mr. Tittle indicated that there are about 20 Jewish burials in the main part of the cemetery. A Star of David on the headstone distinguishes these graves. According to Mr. Tittle, most of the Jewish families requested that their loved ones be buried with their comrades in the main part of the cemetery. He also suggested that Mr. Shatzer, program director for all Maryland veteran cemeteries, may have information.

• Sons of Abraham Cemetery: Virginia Ave., B'nai Abraham Congregation Cemetery. Founded 1894. Source: John Drayman, Montrose, CA Draystar@aol.com who also supplied the names for the OWBR (now the JOWBR - ed note): Near the town of Williamsport, the cemetery served the Jewish Community in Hagerstown, MD. Most of the decedents buried here were Jews of Russian, Lithuanian, Latvian and Polish ancestry. The overall grounds also include another cemetery at the rear of the property, which was originally referred to as simply the "Colored Graveyard at Halfway." The earliest date of death found on the markers in the Hebrew Cemetery is 1895. However, this appears to be unusual, since no other markers date back that far. The majority of the markers show dates of death in a range beginning in the early 1900s and continuing through the 1930s. Of a number of unmarked gravestones, some read only "Infant Boy" or "Infant Girl." Also, this list of names from the Hebrew Cemetery at Halfway in the possession of Mr. Drayman should not be considered "the final comprehensive list," since other people, including members of his own family, were buried there later than the most recent date of death on this list.

• Beth Israel Cemetery: {10271} South Schumaker Drive. 410) 742-2564.The Cemetery of Congregation Beth Israel was established in the 1950's on land purchased adjacent to the Wicomico Memorial Park. The first burial took place in 1959. Prior to that date members of the congregation and others in the Jewish community were buried in Jewish cemeteries in Wilmington, Delaware, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and Baltimore, Maryland. Family ties generally determined the locale of burial. Despite the relative young age of their cemetery, Congregation Beth Israel dates back to 1925 when it was founded as the Kahelas Israel Congregation. The present name, Beth Israel, was adopted in 1951. Attractive Beth Israel Cemetery is approximately 2 acres in size and is well maintained. Burial records and information are available by contacting the synagogue office. (To reach the cemetery, travel south on Business Highway 13 through town. Make a left turn onto Main Street and a right onto Snow Hill Road/Highway 12. Make a left turn onto Schumaker Drive. The cemetery is on your right past the Wicomico Memorial Park.) Two brick entrance walls and a bronze sign plaque mark the entrance. The cemetery is open during daylight hours, Sunday through Friday. Burials are indexed as of April 1995. Source: Julian H.
