[Cz-L] questionnaire

Hello, all --

My answers to the questions agree with the answers of the previous two
people. However I'd like to be more specific on two questions:

question 7: I'd like to be able to visit a couple of specific addresses,
where my father and his family lived. I'm sure I'm not the only one with
such a specific interest. So, some assistance in locating these would be
very much appreciated. If those others who also have specific addresses in
mind could "pool" our addresses, and if someone who understood the streets
of Czernowitz could help us to know which of our addresses were within
close range of one another, then perhaps we'd be able to go in small groups
to find our ancestral homes. That might require a couple of local guides,
but could be much more satisfying than simply touring the city at large.

question 15: Perhaps the archives would allow us to enter in smaller
groupings if not in one large one. Are there local researchers who could be
persuaded ahead of time to actually research specific names for a
reasonable fee, the results to be provided during our visit? Just one
surname per list member. We would have to specify these names well in
advance, of course. And the fee/rate would have to be negotiated well in
advance as well.

I know from personal experience that negotiating anything with the archives
is a tricky matter, but I presume the city does not get groups like ours as
a rule -- might not the mayor wish to help grease the wheels a bit as a way
of showing what a good place Czernowitz is to visit and thus encouraging
future tourist dollars? Is this a totally naive supposition?
