A Kever In Tlust

Sarah: The Baal Shem Tov's mother

Excerpt from Tovste.info:

Rabbi Israel ben Eliezer chose to settle in Tluste, around 1734, and to reveal himself there as the Ba'al Shem Tov. His connection to Tluste is confirmed by various sources: two of the rare surviving letters signed by the Besht indicate that Tluste was his home or place of origin; there are two references to Tluste in the tales of his life and deeds, depicted in Shivei Ha-Besht: In Praise of the Baal Shem Tov; and his mother is buried in Tluste’s Jewish cemetery, where her tombstone could be found until the time of World War II.

Question:

Does anyone know where the Baal Shem Tov's daugter Adel is buried?

i heard that she is buried in a village near medzhibuzh. yet today they are not sure where this village is located.

another source told me that she is buried in Siedlowiec, Poland. I don't know how that would have happened, but thats what an old yid from Siedlowiec told me...
