About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Dowig is a town near Vilna in what was once Lithuania. Most of the Jews from Dowig emigrated to the United States in the 1800s, and many settled in the Boston area. They formed a Jewish fraternal organization. In the late 1800s the organization established the Anshe Dowig Cemetery.

In 1984 the cemetery merged with JCAM (the Jewish Cemetery Association of Massachusetts). The cemetery is located on Centre Street near Crosstown Avenue in West Roxbury (Boston). It is one of 13 Jewish cemeteries in the Centre Street complex.
