Other Notes:
The headstone image seen here is an excerpt from six interwar photographs of Rohatyn’s old Jewish cemetery, as seen in a collection preserved at the Andrey Sheptytsky National Museum in Lviv, used here by the courtesy of Dr. Sergey Kravtsov and with permission of the Museum. All of the stones in these photographs were stolen from the old cemetery for use in road construction during the German occupation of Rohatyn in WWII; to date none have been recovered, and all remain missing.
