Seems that the "Golden Era" was not so much "Golden" after all with the
Austrian regime trying to reduce the number of Jews in Bukowina.
Nevertheless they awarded the Jews land, an act which was not possible till
then. Those Jews were called "Ackerjuden". Among them we can find in this
list from the 18th century my
Great-great-great-Grandfather Elias Neid from Molodia defined as an
"Ackerman". In a later later taxpayer list from 1880 he and and his son
Lazar are still mentioned.
Lazar's son Joseph after whom I'm named is buried in the Czernowitz
cemetery, as is his daughter, and my paternal Grandmother Anna Wolf (Neid).
The people from ASF and Svit - to whom I'm endlessly thankful - cleaned the
"jungle" around her grave. The picture of her new tombstone can be seen
among pictures published here by the relentless contributor to our cause -
our Mimi.

Subject: [Cz-L] Jewish Population in Bukovina between 1774-1914
Czernowitzers...
Fellow member Patrick Teller from Paris, after checking the "Jewish
Taxpayers in Bukovina at the End of 18th Century", raised the following
questions:
let me ask
is the domesticum a tax ?
if it is this means that the list of tax payers is the full list of all
the jews ?
Please have a look at the visualization of the "Statistical Chart Covering
the Population Growth of the Bukovinian Jews between 1774 � 1914" as per Dr.
Salomon Kassner�s book "The Jews in Bukovina", R. L�wit, Vienna/Berlin,
1917, p. 43 at our eheps.com Blog:
http://ehpes.com/blog1/2015/11/10/jewish-population-in-bukovina-between-1774-1914/
2 x "yes", dear Patrick, i. e. yes, "domesticum" was a tax category and,
yes, I assume that taxpayers list, published at
http://czernowitz.blogspot.de/2014/05/jewish-taxpayers-in-bukovina-at-end-of.html
covered more or less all Jews living in the Czernowitz District at the end
of 18th century (i. e. about 430 families with 2,400 souls); in addition
came about 190 families from the Suczawa District. Therefore, considering
the comparatively low Jewish population number, it's for sure a "lucky goal"
to discover an ancestor's name among the taxpayers list.
