I have a series of photos of gravestones I took when I traveled to Kopaihorod in the early 1990s. Please excuse the amateur quality of them. On some I am aware that only part of the inscription is visible. Please translate the Hebrew and or Russian as appropriate. Many thanks.

the "Bachur" [(young) unmarried man]

EFRAYIM son of Reb

Daniel. He passed away 7

Kislev 5689.

May his soul be bound up in the bond of life.
-----------------------------------------------
Efrayim [eff-RAH-yim] is a Biblical name.

The 7th of Kislev, 5689, corresponds to November 19th/20th, 1928.
5/31/2026 6:34 PM I neglected to add that I cannot read the Russian.

Again, I'd suggest posting it as a new image, under the category translation-Russian.

(Or, you can post a request to the Discussion Group, pointing out that the Hebrew has been translated, but that you need a translation of the Russian.)
