Burial Data and Photos

On behalf of the Baron de Hirsch Cemetery, the Jewish Genealogical Society of Montreal submitted a full listing of all De la Savane burials to the JewishGen Online Worldwide Burial Registry - JOWBR with a searchable online database. Alan Greenberg formatted and submitted the first burial data to JOWBR in 2006, updated in 2012. Gary Perlman began photographing the cemetery in 2017, submitting 5-10,000 burial records to JOWBR twice a year. Many volunteers have contributed their time (in many cases, many days) to adding photos and data to our records. Their names are included in the acknowledgements section of section overviews. At JewishGen, Nolan Altman and volunteers have integrated our data and photos into JOWBR.
