I have had a photograph of my great-grandfather's grave in Skala
(now Ukraine) for several years. We recently discovered that the tombstones in the Jewish cemetery in Skala have inscriptions on both sides. A tourist who visited the cemetery last month brought me photographs of the reverse side of the tombstone of my great-grandfather, Hersh Eliyah Wiesenthal (Tsvi Eliyahu ben Yosef Aryeh), after whom I am named. On Viewmate, there are two photographs of the reverse side: an overview and a close-up. I can read my great-grandfather's name in Hebrew, but not the rest. I would be grateful if someone would tell me what the inscription says. The viewmate addresses are: http://data.jewishgen.org/viewmate/ALL/viewmateview.asp?key=8692 http://data.jewishgen.org/viewmate/ALL/viewmateview.asp?key=8693 With my thanks, Helene Kenvin Florida
