RE: [Cz-L] Names of towns

As most of you know, Horodenka is not Bukovina. It belonged to Galizien. At
present it is in the Ukraine as is Chernivtsi.
During the Romanian period Kotzman was called Cotzmani (transliterated).
Radautzi is nowadays in Romania (Southern Bukovina).

Abraham K.

Assuming the proximity to Czernowitz:
Radivitz = Radautz
Kitzman = Kotzman
Horendanka = Horodenka
Yurkovitz = Jurkoutz
