ASHLAND: Ashland County

  • B'nai Israel Cemetery: Managed by Toni Boutwell in Iron River, Wisconsin, the fifteen graves date from before 1900 but are totally unreadable. They probably could be studied by researching burial permits through the town. Any records of Ashland synagogue would be in Duluth. The cemetery was owned by Congregation B'nai Israel, according to the American Jewish Yearbook, 1907-08. The first burial was in 1897. Tree Climbers Volume 2, #1, page 9 has a list of the burials. Names were submitted by both Carol Lieberman and Penny Deshur: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
