The far reaching influence of the Fordon Jews - part 5

Searching through records from around the world, sooner or later leads to the names of more Jews from Fordon, Poland. Today is no different. While reviewing the burial records from the Hebrew Cemetery located at Garfield and Joseph Streets in New Orleans, Louisiana the following marker is found:

In memory of Hermann Aaronshohn,

born in Fordon, Germany

July12, 1839

died June 17, 1899

Rest in Peace

The search for more remnants of the Fordon Jewish community continues.
