About:
When I visited I didn't realize there were 2 different cemeteries beside each other here.
Adath Jeshurun Cemetery has been in the news for reports of tombstone vandalism:
Adeth Jeshurun Cemetery is 12 acres in size. Mt. Sinai Cemetery is 17 acres.
The Mt. Sinai portion of the grounds appeared to be a little more meticulous, and definitely had fancier monuments. Mt. Sinai Cemetery also has a small Frank Furness designed building.
Mt. Sinai Cemetery was established in 1854. The ground was purchased for the Adeth Jeshurun Cemetery in 1861.
Do you have any information about this cemetery that you would like to share?
