Cemetery in Zydowicze

Żydowicze | Belarus
biał. Wasileuszczyna (Васілеўшчына); inna nazwa: Wasilewszczyzna
Cemetery with Polish gravestone monuments. Information about the cemetery has been published (see bibliography).
According to Anna Lewkowska, Jacek Lewkowski and Wojciech Walczak, the disused Catholic cemetery in Zydowicze has a roughly square plan and 300 m² of unfenced area. It was established in the mid-19th century. It currently contains 10 gravestones from that century. The oldest, from 1872, has the following inscription: "1872 / HERE RESTS TEODOR / ANNA / CHAREWSCY". The aforementioned authors report that "the state of preservation of the cemetery is bad in a state of natural decay."
