Translating Hebrew

[aqualeo]

Can anyone translate these tombstones? i was psyched to find these on ancestry, i found sooo much info last night, the free trial is so worth it. i was glad to see that i really was right about the Judaism, i wasn't 100% certain that a b'nai b'rith scholarship was enough proof. especially after i found out that the neighborhood where we grew up was largely Italian and Catholic. Anyway, i wish i could read these. i'm not sure if they're words or names or blessings or what.
also, yay for being in the same cemetery. i mean, of course, i guess. i'm not sure how close together our plots of dirt are, though. that would be nice to know.

P.S. idk if this is the right section to post this sort of thing in, i wasn't sure where would be more fitting

The first one says Shlomo Ben Yaakov and the second one Israel Ben Jacob.

(I don't speak Hebrew, I used the camera feature in Google translator. I didn't know it existed until I proposed myself to figure out what those pictures said)

wait this actually checks out, i think. because our dad was named Jack, and he was from Russia. and i wondered if he had a less American sounding name than Jack as well, but couldn't find any documents about it...but if ben yakov means son of yakov/jacob...that could make sense.

How to Read a Jewish Headstone or Memorial Marker | Sinai Memorial Chapel

www.sinaichapel.org

"The other Hebrew text on a headstone or memorial marker will be the deceased’s Hebrew name. This is followed by the Hebrew בן, ben, “son of” or בת, bat, “daughter of,” followed by the person’s father’s given name and perhaps the mother's as well."
I can't read Hebrew but I do know it's right to left. It looks like yours follow the format "X son of Z" and "Y son of Z"

That matches what Owl got from google translate! Yay! Thanks! actually having two names is such a fun discovery

I don't know Hebrew either but I will mention that Shlomo = Solomon. Another relevant fact I would like to bring up so that traditional Jewish names are "given name son/daughter of father's name". (For example, the names above literally mean Solomon son of Jacob and Israel son of Jacob.) Most Jews did not have surnames until they were forced to adopt them during the late 18th century and early 19th century.
