[Cz-L] Progress report: Czernowitz Cemetery Project

Dear Friends:

I'd like to give you an update on the status of the Czernowitz
Cemetery Project. New members of the list can read about the
background of this project on our web site:
http://czernowitz.ehpes.com/newcemetery/oldproject/chrono.html

Additional cemetery information, including maps of the New Areas and
their corresponding pre-WWII Parcel numbers, can be found by going to
our web site, czernowitz.ehpes.com, and clicking on "Czernowitz
Cemetery Projects" near the bottom of the left column.

Tombstone transcription work is now complete for the following Areas:
38, 39, 42, 44, 45, 47, 49 and 50
13D, 13G, 13H, 20, 21a, 21b, 23, 24, 25
66, 73, 75, 76, 80, 81

The spreadsheets of data associated with these 23 Areas were sent to
the Jewish Genealogical Society of Ottawa, Canada, in August, and
they will soon be forwarded to JewishGen (Joyce Field and Nolan
Altman) for posting on the JewishGen Online Worldwide Burial Registry
<http://www.jewishgen.org/databases/cemetery/>. Along with the
spreadsheet data, photos of each tombstone will also be sent and will
be linked to each searchable record. There are over 4,100 burial
records in these 23 Areas.

I have also received 1st drafts of data for the following Areas:
26, 27, 30, 34, 1, 2, 6, 7, 77, 137, 11, 35, 51, 57, 62 (comprising
over 4000 burials). After double-checking and further transcription
of names engraved on tombstones in Russian, these data will also be
forwarded to JGS Ottawa and then on the JewishGen.

Continuing thanks go to these individuals for their devotion of time
and effort to the project: Osnat Hazan, Lea Haber-Gedalia, Marc
Goldberger, Eddy Mitelsbach, and Kurt Nachman.

Best wishes,

Bruce
