Why isn't Chaja Mattisohn's Yahrzeit Exact?

We do not know the exact date of death of Chaja Mattisohn. According to Jewish tradition, if the exact date of death is not known, the yahrzeit of a person can be observed on any day, as long as it is that same day every year. Since that is the case, we observe the yahrzeit of Chaja Mattisohn on 21 Shevat. If you know the exact date of death of Chaja Mattisohn, contact us via the contact page.
