RE: [Cz-L] New to list: inquiring about the Zimbler family

Dear Simona,

A little bit belated, but please accept also from my side welcome greetings to our group; I think, it's the reight place for you to be. As mentioned by Bruce, the Zimbler family is mentioned in Hugo Gold's book "History of the Jews in the Bukovina" as a family of prominent musicians. We are able to substantiate this allegation by at least three articles, released by the Czernowitzer daily newspaper "Der Tag"

http://czernowitzdaily.blogspot.de/

in August 1932, October 1932 and June 1933:

24.08.1932 - Karl Zimbler is mentioned as a director of a prize-winning orchestra.
02.10.1932 - Josef Zimbler is mentioned as a famous violinist and Ferdinand Zimbler for his career in Germany.
20.06.1933 - Leon Zimbler is mentioned as violin professor (apparently of the famous Moshe Barasch too).

Please check the archives of "Der Tag" at

http://dertag.forenworld.com/index.php

by introducing "Zimbler" into the search engine and get the transcriptions of the a. m. articles. I do hope these will match with your findings and in case you would like to get the original articles, please come back to me.

Have an amazing week and enjoy the results of your research!

> Greetings everyone,

> Just joined the list a few weeks ago. My father's family settled in
> Czernowitz over 200 years ago. My father was born there in 1931 as Arthur
> Zimbler (son of Miriam Goltz) and was on the first transport
> to Transnistria in 1941. He had two older sisters: Lotti and Toni. One was
> 18 and ther other 22 in 1941. My gradfather was murdered by a Romanian
> soldier just outside the camp in 1942. The rest of my father's nuclear
> family survived but left for Romania immediately after the war. My father
> met my mother in Brashov Romania and in 1963 immigrated to Israel and
> became Avraham Sharoni. He passed away in 2004.
>
> I would appreciate any information about the family as well as any
> memorable things those of you who are my father's generation remember from
> 1931-1941. I am currently working on a memoir that begins with the morning
> of the first trasport from the Czernowitz ghetto to Transnistria. My father
> wrote a self published memori beginning with that morning but I would like
> to provide a little bit more context.
>
> Also, we have very little information about the extended family: my
> grandfather's (Zimbler) brothers and sisters and their families and we know
> the whereabouts of only 3 of my grandmother's sibilings but they were 14.
>
> Also, I would like to recommend a great resource, which has been very
> useful for me: a book authored by Marianne Hirsch and Leo Spitzer titled
> Ghosts of Home: The Afterlife of Czernowitz in Jewish Memory, published by
> the University of California in 2010.
>
> I really appreciate this list.
