Description

Shaarey Tefiloh Cemeteries include several cemeteries in Perth Amboy and Woodbridge that were originally owned by Congregation Shaarey Tefiloh (an Orthodox synagogue in Perth Amboy) and are now owned by Shaarey Tefiloh Cemetery Association. Congregation Shaarey Tefiloh Cemetery in Perth Amboy was founded in 1917 by the synagogue (Congregation Shaarey Tefiloh), which also purchased burial rights in a section at Beth Israel Memorial Park in Woodbridge. The Bingle Street section of the Congregation Shaarey Tefiloh Cemetery was founded in 1917 by the United Hebrew Association of Perth Amboy, which transferred this cemetery to the synagogue in 1954 when the organization dissolved. The Hebrew Fraternity Cemetery in Hopelawn (in Woodbridge Township) was founded in 1894 by the First Perth Amboy Hebrew Mutual Aid Society, which reorganized as the Hebrew Fraternity; this organization dissolved in 1973 and transferred its cemetery to Congregation Shaarey Tefiloh. As the Jewish population of Perth Amboy declined, Congregation Shaarey Tefiloh closed its doors and transferred these cemeteries to Shaarey Tefiloh Cemetery Association.
