Mokelumne Hill Pioneer Jewish Cemetery
The tiny Jewish cemetery in Mokelumne Hill holds twelve graves. This burial ground is set apart by an iron fence and located in the back of the large old Protestant cemetery. Details and partial transcriptions of the headstones can be found in A Traveler's Guide to Pioneer Jewish Cemeteries of the California Gold Rush, by Susan Morris.
