Dear Bobby,
You are right about the spelling of the governor's name.
I spelled it wrong.
Please send us information as to the source of the numbers
you quote and also the source of the information on who
and how many were deported in the summer of 1942.
I realize that I have combined what I remember visually,
with incorrect information, to believe in an incorrect
sequence of events.
I thought that my family had a Popovici authorization
which they exchanged in November 1941 for a Calotescu
authorization, this seems to be wrong.
I also remember that my family and I definitely hid
during part of the summer of 1942.
I have a photocopy of a document in two parts dated July 18th 1942,
which was issued by the Cabinetul Militar of the
Guvernamentul Provinciei Bucovina.
It states that the Jews listed in the attached table, 72 in number,
are to stay in place and are to be allowed to live at the addresses
listed on the attached table. Possibly those who had managed to hide
During the June deportations were allowed to stay.
I do not have the complete list of 72 people, just 40 of them.
There might have been other similar lists.
