Other Notes:

[N3] Most probably זיסל Zissel [Yiddish, from the German süß sweet, in the diminutive]. Although the leg of the letter is no longer visible, its top half is very-similar to the ז of the word זקנה directly above it.

See About Dobromyl for an index to headstone locations in the Wall of Memory.
Stone is recorded as Grounded because it is fixed in the Wall of Memory.
