The FREE BURIAL IS IN DANGER!!! They want to pour earth over it and resell the graves. Further explanation is at http://www.jewishinterest.com


FINKLESTONE was the official undertaker and sexton for the United Hebrew Charities (UHC) of New York. He did all their burials for the free burial. They used land that was donated to them. They were given land in many cemeteries. The main one was in Mokom Sholom. Darech Amuno owned Mokom Sholom and donated land for graves in lieu of a monetary contribution. The UHC was also involved with the HOA (HEBREW ORPHAN ASLYUM). They were the biggest Jewish charity of the day. They are now known as the Jewish Board of Family and Children's Services.


EXPLANATION Of AGES OF SOME LISTINGS
Possibly
if you had been in the HOA and requested burial in the plot you could get it. That would still make you an orphan no matter how long you lived.The definition seems to be rather loose. Many of the children had one parent. Some had two. Not all were "full" orphans.
ORPHAN GROUNDS AND SELIGMAN SOLOMON SOCIETY,
THE NEW YORK ASSOCIATION FOR JEWISH CHILDREN
(HEBREW ORPHAN ASYLUM)

There is also an Orphans Plot in Salem Fields Cemetery, located in one of the Public Grounds Plots at Salem Fields. It belonged to the HEBREW ORPHAN ASYLUM (HOA). Information in Hy Bogen's book 'The Luckiest Orphans".

The STORY Of SELIGMAN SOLOMON

SELIGMAN SOLOMON
OBELISK - BORN 10/12/1822 - DIED 02/13/1885

Death cert #518557, died 02/13/1885 at Bloomingdale Asylum, Boulevard (W {?}) and 117th St., New York, N.Y. of acute melancholia, exhaustion from persistent refusal of food and sories (?) alinentation (?) for 10 weeks and irrelative diarrhea, age 62 years, born Germany, New York 45 years, single, occupation retired merchant, residence 225 E. 52nd St., New York, N.Y., father Solomon Solomon, mother Sophia Solomon, both parents born Germany, buried 02/16/1885, undertaker S. Kakeles, 243 E. 49th St., New York, N.Y.

***********************

The following is from the book THE LUCKIEST ORPHANS, A HISTORY OF THE HEBREW ORPHAN ASYLUM by Hyman Bogen, copyright 1992 by Hyman Bogen, published by University of Illinois Press, Urbana and Chicago, Illinois, p. 141

"There was no one like him connected with any other orphanage in America. For more than 2 decades after the HOA opened in 1860 he was a daily visitor there and devoted more time and effort on behalf of the children than any other person concerned with their welfare. What motivated him to do it is not known but one reason may have been the extreme poverty into which he himself was born in a little town in Germany in 1822. In the early 1840's, he immigrated to the United States and settled in New York. After a slow start in the dry goods business, Solomon switched to real estate and made a huge fortune almost overnight.

He was a friend of Meyer Stern, a member of the Society, who persuaded Solomon to join. Indeed, Solomon did much more: he retired from business and devoted the rest of his life to charity, though, he was only 38 years old at the time. Every day he turned up at HOA and did everything he could for the children. He brought them food and sweets and would often take his meals with them - a practice the administration probably didn't like but was reluctant to stop. Solomon played with the children, joked with them and consoled them when their spirits were low. Nor did he forget them when they were discharged; he found the boys work if they had none and made sure they were properly paid. He even visited boys in their home to see if they needed guidance with their personal problems. These activities suggest that Solomon was going beyond philanthropy into social work and that he can be credited with beginning the movement toward individualized care at HOA.

During his lifetime he recruited about 1000 new members into the society, a record that was never equaled. Eventually, Solomon's fortune ran out and he was reduced to the poverty into which he had been born. In the late summer of 1884, he fell sick and died the following February. His dying wish was to be buried with his beloved orphans in their plot at Salem Fields, in Queens. His death was mourned by hundreds of alumni and residents who knew him as "Papa Solomon" Seeking to honor his memory, they decided to erect a suitable monument over his grave. A monument committee was organized and collected contributions from over a thousand residents, alumni and friends. On May 9, 1886, in the presence of five hundred people, mostly alumni, and the asylum's choir of forty voices, the monument - a twenty two foot high granite obelisk - was dedicated by Dr. Barr. Jesse Seligman delivered the oration and Meyer Stern, Solomon's friend for over forty years, offered theology. The epitaph on the monument read: "A father to the orphan and humanity's noblest volunteer", and on the reverse side side was the text from Job 29:12: "Because I delivered the poor that cried, and the fatherless, and him that had none to help him."

As the monument was unveiled, many in the audience wept. Some stood around it for a long time after the ceremony was over. Anyone who visits the Orphans Plot in Salem Fields today will find the monument still there in the middle of a row of thirteen headstones marking the graves of inmates. "Papa" Solomon's monument towers above the stones: he is still looking after his children.

For many alumni it alone seemed insufficient to honor Solomon's memory. In March, 1887 a group of them got together to form an alumni association they named the Seligman Solomon Society. ......"

It appears that Louise & Sarah had the same mother but a different father. It's possible that one of them was either adopted by the father or just took the name. Notice the date of her reinterment is just before Louise died. Evidently Estelle is the baby of Louis & Samuel.

From Hy Bogen's book The Luckiest Orphans, p. 125 - 126 -"In the summer of 1898 the HOA was suddenly confronted with the greatest crisis in its history. ... Dr. Jacoby diagnosed it as epidemic dysentery .... Early in the third week of the epidemic five children died, including several who were about to graduate from Grammar School #43. One victim, Celia Lipschitz had been a playmate of Dr. Baar's only daughter, May. A pretty girl with curly, blonde hair, May was adored by all the girls. At the morning service after Celia's death, Baar presented a side of himself the children had rarely seen. Appearing in the synagogue with a long, gloomy face, he started the service in a tentative, halting manner. Then he lost control, broke down and wept."
