Enfield Cemetery

[Ian H]

Does anyone live close to the Jewish cemetery in Enfield that would be willing to take a photo of a couple of graves please?

[James]

Would that be the one in Caterhatch Road?

[Ian H]

Sorry didnt realise there were so many! Yes it is in Carterhatch rd the Adath Yisroel Cemetery.
I am trying to find out about Elizabeth (Bessie) Phillips born in Ombersley Worcs in 1884 my 2 x Grt Aunt she married Myer Cotton,I was told they had a shop in the Small Heath area of Birmingham until the 1940's.The family then seemed to have lost touch with them and I found they were buried at the Cemetery in Enfield.
If you are able to take some photos James it would be much appreciated,their actual location within the Cemetery is Area,Row,Plot-COTTON MYER,K,3,18,COTTON BESSIE,K,3,17.

Could you PM Reference to graves, I am not sure how they mark them in graveyards and it it does have a lot of graves.

I don't have the links here - but there's a project under way which is photographing Jewish graves - and that's separate from the United Synagogue site, which has photos of graves in its care indexed online.

Have you tried googling?

Here's what I found, googling:
Jewish Genealogical Society of Great Britain - Enfield Cemetery - Adath Yisroel Burial Society Records for surnames beginning A - L
International Jewish Cemetery Project - London (this has lots of useful info)

I did wonder!

I may have been thinking of this site:
The Cemetery Project: GenPals.com Cemetery Project
but it doesn't look as if they've got to Enfield yet.

That looks like a usefull site Christine.

If you're after Jewish research, there are a number of useful specialist sites - JewishGen being almost the equivalent of GenUKI.

There's an excellent British Jewry website, too.
