Although we copy all information
on every stone, we have created an index for easy
searching. Each plot in each cemetery is given a
specific Plot Code number. This code number consists
of the Cemetery Code, which designates a specific
cemetery and a Plot Number, assigned by the society.
For example: Plot Code number
LOD100
LOD is the cemetery code assigned to the
cemetery in Myszyniec, Mazowieckie province.
100 is the plot
number we have assigned a specific plot which
contains information on everyone buried in this
plot.
Each plot number can contain any amount of names,
various surnames and first names.

The cemeteries in our listings are all in rural
areas. Some were overgrown with dense vegetation
during our visits and it was not always possible to
get to all the headstones. We copied all the
gravesites that were accessible.
Please note
that monuments in many of these cemeteries
date only from the late 1800s. In rural areas,
wooden crosses and metal plates were commonly used
as grave markers, most of which have decayed and
rusted with the passage of time. thus,
although these cemeteries are hundreds of years old,
most of the surviving monuments are a century old or
less. the older monuments that survived were
constructed of stone and wrought iron.
