I’m trying to find a possible gravesite in the Jewish section. My grandparents are buried there. I grew up in Camden. The last name is WEISS and first names were JACOB and ESTER or ESTHER. Any information on my grandparents would be wonderful. I know there was a lot of destruction in the cemetery and tombstones were destroyed. I can hope. I’m trying to recreate my heritage to somehow prove that we are definitely Jewish so I can keep my brother from being cremated when he dies.
