"In Memory of the Martyrs of Felshtin
community and the surroundings in the Ukraine that were murdered in the
Petlura calamity, may their names (the rioters) be removed, in the year
5679, in the month of Adar, in the days of the pogrom, and the holocaust
in the days of the Nazi occupation.
"May God avenge their blood.
"May their souls be bound in the bundle
of life, memorialized by the people of Felshtin and the diaspora."
Chamber of the Holocaust Museum, Jerusalem.

Following his visit to Gvardeyskoye in May
2007, Mel Werbach was determined to recognize the suffering of our
ancestors by launching the Felshtin Memorial Project. Your help is
needed. Details are here.
We thank everyone who has donated so far. The list is here.
Mel's account of his trip is
Felshtin 70 Years Later.
He has also made
photos from his trip available.
A newly uncovered list of Felshtin pogrom
victims is now available here
