RE: [Cz-L] Association for the Assistance to Bukovina Jews

Bruce...

Apart from the fact that I'm still clearing a backlog caused by my recent journeys, it took me a while to come back to your question, but let's see, what we've got so far:

The Association for the Assistance to Bukovia Jews [Asociatia pentru Sprijinirea Evreilor din Bucovina], as per the identity card being offered on eBay and carried over to our Ehpes.com Blog

http://ehpes.com/blog1/2012/09/20/association-for-the-assistance-to-bukovina-jews/

was one of several associations, established after WW2, in order to represent interests of the Romanian Holocaust victims of pogroms and deportations, mainly acting as an interlink to the Federation of Jewish Communities of Romania and to the Joint Distribution Committee.

That's one of many interesting facts, which I learned from Peter Weber's most interesting (Romanian) article "The Repatriation of the Deported Jews from Transnistria and the Question of Their Integration in the Postwar Romania", released by the Yearbook of "George Baritiu" Institute of History in Cluj-Napoca for the year 2007. In addition I succeeded to identify the correspondance of the Association for the Assistance to Bukovia Jews, stored by the National Archives of Romania. The links to the respective institutions and the download links to Peter Weber's article and to the archival inventory are available at the above mentioned posting.

And, dear Bruce, as you will know, I bookmarked these data for my next trip to Bucharest. Thank you for drawing our attention to the this association.

Warmest wishes to all of you!
