Joseph Held section of Baron Hirsch: No one from our family had visited for ages. We werewarned by the office that Joseph Held was one of the sections that was terribly overgrown(possibly with poison ivy) and came prepared with gloves, gardening tools and trash bags. Ittook a long time to find the two graves because almost all the stones were covered over and the

office could not provide a detailed map. Apparently, the growth of English ivy and other climbingplants that had been popular decades ago had been left totally unchecked. In some places, theyhad not only grown over the stones but also attached themselves to low hanging tree branches,creating a jungle of vines. Eventually, we found our gf's grave and almost missed our gm'sbecause the stone had toppled off the base. We filled up about 6 huge trash bags (all that wehad brought) just from clearing a relatively small area. We went again a year later and wereamazed how much had grown back, mainly growth from adjacent plots. Dena Abrams ,Merrick, NY. [November 2000 on JG Digest]

(Submitted by Mila Begun ) Summary of The New York Times Sunday, March 24th article byAndrew Jacobs on page 3 of The City section (Section 13): The history and present status ofthe Hebrew Free Burial Society's Mt. Richmond
Cemetery on Staten Island follows:
-
Eastern European Jews from the Lower East Side of Manhattan formed the Hebrew Free BurialAssociation in 1888. The group bought Mt. Richmond plots in 1909. In 1911, the fire at theTriangle Shirtwaist Company on Waverly Place killed 146 young women, many Jewishimmigrants, who are buried at Mt. Richmond with the words "Died at the Fire" etched on theirheadstones. Burials peaked at 1,261 in 1914 with more than half children. In 1986, burialsreached a low of 139. An estimated 55,000 burials occurred in the 1900s. Among the gravesare indigent Jews, sometimes buried without a marker, Holocaust survivors who died penniless,

and more recently, arrivals from Ukraine's Chernobyl disaster, who came to the U.S. fortreatment. Many NYC organizations used to insure indigent Jews a proper burial. Now, theHebrew Free Burial Association is the only one remaining. Surviving on occasional donationsand meager government subsidies, the association nearly went bankrupt in the mid-1980s. Thecemetery fell into disrepair. In 1984, an investment banker, Gerald E. Feldhamer, became theorganization's president. His aggressive fund raising efforts restored the cemetery and itschapel and increased the annual budget. The number of free or low cost burials increased tomore than 400 in 1995.
Currently, Rabbi Shmuel Plafker presides over the cemetery's religious functions and thephysical site. As archivist, he continues to inscribe new burials in the newest of three crumblingledgers. Every person buried in Mt. Richmond cemetery is listed in a book. About 30,000 graveswere without markers until Mr. Feldhamer started the " Make Your Mark " campaign. Some 600markers have been added.
