[Cz-L] Researching: RETTER & FLEISS & SCHACHTER from BOJAN/CHERNOWITZ

My name is Ilana and I am researching my family roots the last year.
I have a lot of information on one side of the family, almost nothing on the
other. Maybe someone here will identify the names, and can add details.
My ggggrandfather was Shaja RETTER. He came to Bojan in 1840 from Sadagora.
He was married to Rachel (nee WELT). They had 10 Children (family names:
RETTER, SILBERBUSH, SCHACHTER, RAPPAPORT, MAIDLER, SCHACTER, OHRENSTEIN,
SCHMUL, HOROWITZ). I have each of their family trees. Most of them lived in
Chernowitz, some stayed in Bojan and some lived in Budenitz.

My gggranparents Yaakov RETTER (b. 1853) and Chaya Klara (SCHACTER) lived in
Bojan . They had 8 children:
Josef ,Wolf, Jonas, Yetti Knobler, Rosa Chandsi., Regina Silberbush, Netti
Morgenstern and
Honnora – My ggrandmother. She married Phillip FLEISS .

His parents were (probably) Hersch and Rosa Fleiss, and he had a sister
Feige (fanni) who immigrated to the USA and had a family there. I have no
other details on their parents, or about him.
They both died very young, my grandmother Sophie FLEISS and her 2 brothers
(Josef and Herman) became orphans at the ages of 9,11,13. She was raised by
her aunt in Berlin, the brothers in Chernowitz until they immigrated to
Uruguay.

Where can I find vital records for Bojan? Or maybe they were registered in
Chernowitz? We don't have a branch in Israel of the Family history library.
Is there another way to look at the vital records from Chernowitz?
 I hardly found anything on the name Fleiss. Maybe they changed it from
another name. Do you have any idea how I can trace the Fleiss family's
ancestors?

Thanks,
Ilana Avimor
Israel
