Before Georg Levy founded his own company in 1920 (trademarks "GL" and "Gely", - composed of the first letters of his name), he was a partner in the company of Hubert Kienberger (trademark  "Huki"). The owners of the company were Alfred and Kurt Levy and Peter Moritz Goldschmidt. The owner of the house, engineer Georg Levy, lived at Frommanstrasse 8. The range of goods included a large assortment of tin toys such as cars, motorcycles, airplanes, ships, tin figures of various kinds as well as tin trains.

About 220 gravestones are preserved in the cemetery, inscriptions from about 1630 to 1936, but the cemetery existed at least since the 15th century. After an expansion around 1900, a tahara hall with a low dome was built. The new part of the cemetery was surrounded with a high brick wall. Part of the enclosure and the hall were demolished around 1982.

The cemetery was damaged during the occupation, it fell into disrepair after the war and was rebuilt and maintained by an association after 2001.

Hedwig Marx, born on 15.04.1888 in Frankfurt am Main, married on 18.01.1910 Oscar Löw-Beer, born on 21 April 1878 in Brünn, from the widely ramified Löw - Beer family of merchants and industrialists. After receiving his doctorate from the University of Heidelberg in 1901, Oscar Löw-Beer gained professional experience in various European industrial companies in Germany, Austria and England before taking over the management of the Griesheim chemical plant, which was run by his father-in-law, in 1910.

Lesser Isaak Zielenziger, together with his wife Marie, founded a flourishing wholesale grain business in Potsdam in 1848 at the age of 28, which enabled him to live on it even in his retirement. He was very active in the Jewish community in Potsdam. In 1851 he was a member of the board of the Jewish community and in 1855 he was one of the founding members of the Chewra Kaddischa. His son Julius later continued the business.

The cemetery is located about two kilometers east of the village center in a wooded area. It is said to have been created in 1838, but the oldest gravestone dates from 1829.

Until 1868, the Jews of Geldern also buried their dead here. The last to be buried here was Moritz Lebenstein in 1931.

Today there are still 25 gravestones in the cemetery, some of them very weathered.

Somewhat outside the city, directly on the Daugava River, lies the Jewish cemetery of Kraslava. The entrance gate is locked, the walled enclosure is largely preserved. You can get the key from the city administration and thus visit the cemetery. The area is large, the front part is neat and well-kept, in the back part there are many older graves in the thicket. The association LOT e.V. has worked here in the years 2018/2019 for 10 days each with volunteers and still not in the approach the entire cemetery to process and document (see "Related links").
