Re: Piliver Podolier society #usa
I have some family buried in Mount Lebanon in one of the Piliver Podolier sections. Here's what I've learned.
Mount Lebanon Cemetery has its own website with a pretty good search function which allows you to specify the "society". https://www.mountlebanoncemetery.com/search/ And the results include basic information plus the grave location, but not photos. FindaGrave has 93K memorials recorded at Mt. Lebanon but only 13% photographed (and >1600 open photo requests). There is an option under Plot to specify Piliver Podolier but it finds only 12 records. Renee Steinig put me onto JewishData.com, a paid genealogy service, which has photos from some cemeteries – including Mount Lebanon – not available elsewhere. You can search their database to see if they may have records for your family members – but not see the photos or records – before deciding whether you want to go further. There is a short-term account available and some JGS memberships include with JewishData access. The organization of database is a bit idiosyncratic and it can take a bit of poking around to find what you want. For instance, I couldn't find one relative until I left out the documented death date because it wasn't included in the JewishData record. And the data provided – aside from the photos – is less than spare, so you'll need to check the above sources to get a more complete record for the burial. I hope this is useful, Lee Jaffe |
