The story of Przemyslaw Isroel (or Israel) Szpilman’s efforts to reconstruct 250,000 records of burials at the historic Jewish cemetery in Poland has received extensive coverage due to a recent Associated Press report. Szpilman has so far reconstituted 60,000 records.
What the other stories have not given you isa link to a website documenting Szpilman’s 2003 wedding, the cemetery’s website itself (most of it in Polish), pictures of it, or help on how to gather information on people who may be buried there.

Hello,
I found this information on a Belgian jewish periodical called
“Contact J”. My grandfather, Ruben or Rouven Zysberg, died in Warsaw, before my fathers’ family came in Belgium, after first World War.
Would you give me a mail address where I could reach MrSzpilman?
Maybe he has, or he will find my grandfathers’ tomb and so give
me the name of his fathers’name.
Many thanks for your reply.
