Hello Mrs. Dimitriu,

My name is Asher Turtel, my father Lazar Turtel was born in Czernowitz in
1896, and maybe that he attended the same school as your father. I am very
interested in the events you mentioned in your letter but have no
information at all. In Czernowitz, there were many cinemas. One of them was
named Savoy and was at Rathausstrasse number 10. In that building there was
a passage leading to the Liliengasse (number 7)and in that passage, my
mother owned a bonbonery. That is all what I know. Please volunteer more
information from your father's notes. Thanks in advance. Asher Turtel.

Subject: [Cz-L] Czernowitz, 1904 - 1910 - schools, cinema and Bleriot

Hello all,

I have only recently received a copy of the personal notes of my
great-grandfather's brother, Rudolf NEUMAN, who was born in 1895 in Zastavna
and went to school in Czernowitz between 1904 to 1910. These make some very
interesting reading; they also open up a few "roads" of research.

In his notes he writes that at the time, there were the following grammar
schools in Czernowitz (I am taking these to be "Oberschule / Gymnasium",
i.e. schools which one frequented from age 10 to 18, when one would sit the
exam for "Matura"):
- one German school for boys
- one German school for girls
(he says these two were frequented mainly by children of civil servants and
army officers)
- one Ukrainian-German school (which he frequented)
- one Romanian-German school
- one Polish-German school.

Would anyone by any chance know the names of these schools?

Also, he mentions that the owner of the cinema was a distant cousin - but he
doesn't give any names. Does anyone happen to know more about the owner of
the cinema in Czernowitz during that period?

Rudolf also mentions that Louis Bleriot was in Czernowitz in 1910, to
present his new flying machine, and he says he was one of the scouts
guarding Bleriot's aeroplane. I am wondering if there would be any account
of this anywhere?

Thank you in advance for any hints you might be able to offer.

Kind regards,

Dana Dimitriu
