Listed in the table below is the information about the thirty-eight extant Minsker society plots in New York and New Jersey. The Code listed is for reference purposes, the rest is self-explanatory. Realize that the society names shown below could easily have been changed over the years since the establishment of societies that first purchased the plot. For example, the two plots at Washington Cemetery marked WA78 and WA79 are both identified as belonging to the Chevra Ahavath Achim Anshe Minsk, the first burials being in approximately 1893. However, this was not the name of the original society. The society plots (both of them) both began as Poel Zedek Anshe Minsk, then changed to the Minsker Hebrew Benevolent Association. The society plot was next owned by the Mosaic Benevolent Society, and finally the plots were owned by Chevra Ahavath Achim Anshe Minsk. The change in plot ownership could be between totally different organizations or they might have been the same organization that simply changed its name.
