Cemetery in Bobulince

Bobulińce | Ukraine

The cemetery lies to the west of the village, just behind the Greek Catholic church. It was founded in the early 19th century, on a rectangular plan. It formerly housed a chapel, erected by local residents in 1901 and consecrated in 1908. The western part of the cemetery contains new burials. Four Polish tombstones from the second half of the 19th century were found in the old part, the oldest of which commemorates Joanna Kiewicz (d. 1854). The inscription on the tombstone states that she was orphaned by five children. Buried in the cemetery are, among others, the Greek Catholic parish priest Piotr Łękawski (d. 1860) and his wife Marta, née Jamiewicz (d. 1866).
