Czernowitzers, dear friends...
One of our topics for our EHPES Bukovina Summit Vancouver 2015 was the sche=
duled disclosure of the "Jewish Taxpayers in Bukovina at the End of 18th Ce=
ntury". At that particular period of time Bukovina was divided into two dis=
tricts, i. e.
1. Czernowitz, with 399 Jewish families (68 %),
2. Suczawa, with 190 Jewish families (32 %),
as per the year 1797 according to Dr. Johann Polek's "Statistik des Judenth=
ums in der Bukowina [Statistics of the Jews in Bukovina]" from the year 188=
9. While the data for the Suczawa District still remain to be retrieved, by=
courtesy of Czernowitz Regional Archives senior archivist Dragos Olar, in =
January 2015 we have succeeded to discover the first (and main) volume evid=
encing the taxation of 430 Jewish families with more than 2400 souls for th=
e Czernowitz District at the end of 18th century:

Fellow member Jim Wald stated a few weeks ago, that "it would be very inter=
esting to know if we could trace any
individual families that far back." These archival find is the answer on bo=
th historical and genealogical questions and we wish you all success for yo=
ur research!
