RE: [Cz-L]Surname Adoption in Czernowitz - Are there records?

Jeanette...

Unfortunately I don't know about surname adoption lists in Czernowitz, but concerning the names, which you are looking for (ROSENBERG, TRESSER, UNGAR / UNGER, PAUKER, RUBIN, KATZ, MEERFELD / MEHRFELD / MERFELD / MEIERFELD), I'd like to direct you to the archives of "Der Tag":

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

Introducing "Rosenberg" into the search engine, you'll find - related to Czernowitz - for example:

Rosenberg on Partinigasse as victims of a robbery (05.06.1932); Poor Foundation Zlate Rosenberg married Stecher, managed by the Czernowitz Jewish Community (18.06.1932); Cilli Rosenberg, accused of communist activities (20.10.1932); Irma Rosenberg, accused of communist activities, but acquitted (12.11.1932); Cilli Rosenberg sentenced to 10 days of prison (08.02.1933); Rosenberg Theater Agency (25.03.1933); Alfred Rosenberg, Student, accused of membership of the Edi Wolf Gang, but acquitted (28.11.1933).

You'll find similar entries for TRESSER, UNGAR, PAUKER, RUBIN, KATZ as well. Happy "hunting" and warmest wishes!
