Other Notes:
[N] Symbols include both blessing hands and a lion.
[N] This gravestone consists of two parts that were joined incorrectly despite the seemingly-reasonable fit that paired them when the Wall of Memory was constructed. This part S19A is typical of a grave for a Cohen, with a פ נ abbreviation and nothing more. The bottom part S19B refers to the deceased as having been a Levite הלוי. Cohen and Levite are mutually-exclusive. See the image in the gallery of the two gravestones together on the Wall.
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.
