Christian.
The oldest stones are from deep in the Habsburg period.
I think it has to do with social status and assimilation.
As the Jews got richer they became more German.
These assimilated rich are buried separately,
on the main path.
The stones being of the finest granite and contain
No Hebrew trace.
This happened only in Czernowitz were assimilation
had no parallel in the Bukovina.
I thing that only Lemberg had a similar show.
There were no Germans as German as the
Czernowitz Jewish upper strata .

It does not depend on the region, Hardy and Merle, it depends on the periode. The very old stones have exclusively Hebrew inscriptions; then comes a time with mixed inscriptions - Hebrew and German. That's what my experience says.
