Merle, I dont really know.
But Monateriska comes from Monastery. There is no monastery there now or
ever was.
Which only complicates matters.
A big village at the SW of Czernowitz ,which was also a big village before
the Austrians came.
The Lipovans lived there , a Russian sect who kept the Sabbat and were also
called
the Subotniki because the kept the sanctity of Saturday and did not kill
Jews .
The grew long beards and had soft eyes.
The came from Russia or somewhere as refugees .
Something like the Mormons in America.
