Degel Israel Cemetery Old
Also known as Huntingtonville Jewish Cemetery
Watertown, Jefferson County, New York, USA
Alternate Name(s) Huntingtonville Jewish
Watertown, Jefferson County
Location On the southeast (right) side of Ridge Road off Eastern Blvd (turn right when exiting Watertown just before the bridge). It is the third of 3 small cemeteries (Calvary, Huntingtonville Rural, and Degel Israel)
The (Old) Congregation Degel Israel cemetery, approximately 25 feet wide by 72 feet deep. The property is enclosed with a fence with a gate. The property is well maintained. Many old trees surround the cemetery. The abundance of shade has encouraged the growth of moss on the stones making many of them illegible. Only twelve markers were visible in 1996. At the early part of this century, H. Ellis was president of this cemetery according to old Watertown city directories. Source: Janet Lavine (Mrs. Barry)
The tombstones are both in English and Hebrew.
