This database
only contains information on burials and/or deaths which
occurred in the Louisville,
Kentucky area
and the funeral arrangements were handled by Herman Meyer &
Son.
You can
now search
our
records
online.
Read the
description
of the
links
below and
decide
which one
fits your
needs. If you are not able to find the
individuals name on the list, we will not have any information at the
office either as the online information is the same information we
have.
As we are able to provide online access to more information, we will post it as
soon as possible.
On
this page
you are
able to
view
photos of
headstones,
the maps
of all of
Louisville's
Jewish
cemeteries,
the names
of those
buried in
each
cemetery
and where
their
grave is
located.
This
is a good
place to
begin your
search.
Everyone
who has
been
buried by
Herman
Meyer
& Son
will be
listed in
alphabetical
order.
If you are
not able
to find
the
person's
name here,
there is a
very good
chance we
are not
going to
have any
information
in our
files.
However,
we are
continually
updating
our
records as
individuals
provide
missing
data to
us.
Also,
other
funeral
homes do
use the
cemeteries
as
well.
Therefore,
you may
find the
person in
the
"Jewish
Cemeteries"
page.
As we
photograph
each
cemetery,
we will
come
across
names not
in our
records.
If you can
not find
who you
are
searching
for,
please
call and
we may be
able to
help.
Here
you will
find a
list of
all the
cemeteries
we have
buried
individuals
in.
Most are
found in
Jefferson
County,
but there
are also
numerous
cemeteries
listed
from
around the
country.
The
cemetery
names are
listed in
alphabetical
order, but
not the
names of
people who
are
buried.
If you prefer to have us look up the information, or if you would like additional information, please contact us via email, by calling or by writing a letter. We will respond to all inquires as soon as we are able to process your request. Responses will be made through email ONLY.
Please provide as much relevant information as you can on the person (s) you are inquiring about. Relevant information would be: their name, date of death or birth, parents names, the names of any siblings, their spouse or children.
