Hi All,

I don't have a specific Czernowitz question however,
a few years ago I went to a genealogy conference=20
where I learned there were some dates eliminated from the calendar in i th=
ink the 1660's???
Whereas, almost every year a few seconds are usually added or subtracted=
 to=20
the calendar. I heard that one year they eliminated 4-8 weeks.
I want to say it was 1664 but I could be off it could have been in the 146=
0's or 1260's???

Does this ring a bell to anyone? if so please let me know

Thank you
Kevin Wexler
