Beth Jacob Cemetary Inscriptions July 28, 1990

This is an old Jewish Cemetary, also known as the Doat Street
Cemetary, at the end of Lanford St., in Buffalo, NY. I have been
told that the burial records have been lost. Few people in Buffalo
seem to know of its existance. Many of the tombstones have Hebrew
inscriptions which we cannot read and therefore have not included.
Those stones with only Hebrew inscriptions have been noted.
