RE: [Cz-L] Czernowitz - Introduction

Jay...

Welcome to the group! It's for sure the right place for you to be when it comes to your genealogical research in Bukovina.

1. Please check the obituaries of "Der Tag" for the year 1932 at:

http://czernowitzdaily.blogspot.de/p/dead-gone-1932.html

Look for the obituary for Josef Glaser, dated 01.06.1932, which reads as follows:

<D> "Todesfall. Im Alter von 57 Jahren starb in Zastavna der Advokat Josef Glaser. Der Verstorbene, eine Leuchte der Zastavner Gesellschaft erfreute sich eines großen Ansehens, was die ungemeine große Beteiligung am Leichenbegängnis, welches am 23. d. dortselbst stattfand, bewies."

<EN> "Death case. The lawyer Josef Glaser deceased in Zastavna at the age of 57 years. The decedent was a shining example for the Zastavna society and enjoyed a distinguished position, evidenced by the enormous participation to the funeral, which took place there [in Zastavna] on the 23rd."

Jay, is that your great-great grandfather, who deceased in Zastavna (!!!) in May 1932?

2. Please check the Ehpes Databases section at:

3. Please check the Czernowitz Address Directories (1898, 1909, 1914, 1927, 1936) at:

5. Are the letters from your great-great grandfather similar to those from my grandfather, published at:

6. Please share the results of your reasearch with all of us!

Warmest wishes for now, happy "hunting" and a Happy New Year!
