The town of Kadina is not exactly close to anywhere. Located on the Yorke Peninsula in South Australia, it is a two hour drive from Adelaide, and today it is home to just 5,000 people.
But winding the clock back more than 100 years, this town was home to the Rosenberg family, a Jewish family that moved there from Adelaide. Julius, or Yechiel Meyer, practiced as a jeweler in the town for 33 years. Today, the Rosenberg decendants still live nearby, and are proud of their ancestors Jewish heritage.
It is fascinating to see how even back then, living in a rural setting was no obstacles to living a Jewish life, and, at the end of it, being buried as a Jew.
Thank you to Yonason Jones for taking some time to visit the graves of this family, and for sending us these photos.
