    Looking for your family history?
    Trying to find your ancestors' burial place?


    Search our database of headstone inscriptions from Jewish cemeteries throughout the UK

    Find headstone inscriptions, including Hebrew transliterations (where possible) and mini family trees for each individual. Also included are records from various sources such as census returns, wills, birth and marriage registers, and many more, to help you complete your genealogy and understand your ancestry.

    Cemetery Scribes and Synagogue Scribes are dedicated to the memory of Angela SHIRE, whose humanity, consummate integrity and encyclopedic knowledge inspired their creation. They represent an enduring legacy to her major contributions to the art of Anglo-Jewish history.
