Cemetery Overview
"May
their Dear Memories Be Blessed"
June 2013 - A new album of
tombstones has been added to the website with photographs taken by Vicky
Kaufman in 2009. The location (section/row) of the graves were not
received but each image has the name of the deceased person as a caption
which should make it easier for searching (via the search facility at the
bottom of this page and on the home page). Most of these graves are
in the E section of the cemetery
This represents an update of some 110 tombstones from the original posting in
2005 and includes some general pictures of the cemetery including the Ohel
Shem.
Editor : Sincere apologies to all
concerned about the delay in posting these images and again grateful
thanks to Vicky for the excellent photography.

May 2005 - It is with great honour
that ZJC announces that these Bulawayo Cemetery pages have been further updated after much effort in both textual recording, mapping,
photographing and posting on this site.
Thanks to the efforts of Vicky Kaufman,
Sheila Broomberg and Judy Chitrin in Bulawayo this section now has records of each grave including its
location (section and row) and some 1,240 photographs of the tombstones. Click on the camera image in the
relevant row and the reduced resolution image will appear in your browser.
If you place your mouse in the bottom right-hand corner of the image an
icon will appear to enable you to enlarge the image to its full
resolution.
There is a total list 1,375
registered graves at the cemetery.
We are now working to finish
photographing of the
tombstones for sections E and F . There are also a few
missing photos for sections A-C which we are investigating.
The fourteen pages have been split up alphabetically and
can be reached via the menu on the left.
If you have any additional
information or corrections to these pages please send it to Dave
