Hello! I'm hoping someone will translate three Hebrew inscriptions on
tombstones in the Chevra Kadisha cemetery here in St. Louis. They are the
tombstones of Sam Appelbaum/Applebaum, his brother Frank and his wife, and
Frank's son Paul and his wife.

To view photographs of the tombstone inscriptions, either click on the
links below, or cut and paste them into a browser. Sam and his brother
Frank are believed to be immigrants >from Russia, possibly Minsk.

Also, "Sam" and "Frank" are probably Americanized versions of their Hebrew
names. Can someone tell me what the original names may have been?
