Dear Rachel,

Beyond our earlier correspondence about online directories, I'm unable to a=
ssist you further. But within your message is something of great importanc=
e to many of us. You mention searching the JOWBR database <https://www.jewi=
shgen.org/databases/Cemetery/> for burials in Wiznitz. I thought you were =
searching data that didn't exist in JOWBR. But further checking revealed t=
hat more than 2000 burials in Wiznitz were posted to JOWBR earlier this mon=
th! See: https://www.jewishgen.org/databases/cemetery/jowbrshow.php?ID=U=
KR-08331

You can read more about the responsible organization, Jewish Galicia and Bu=
kovina Organization, and their work to document the cemetery in Wiznitz her=

Chudey / Ciudei / Ciudin was added to JOWBR earlier this month, as well, ab=
out 100 burials:

(It's not clear who is to thank for posting these data.)

My only suggestion to you, Rachel, is to search for Shlomo Hubner in the Wi=
znitz cemetery without using his surname. Many were buried using only their=
 Hebrew Patronymic names, e.g. Moshe ben Zvi Hersch. Perhaps he's still in=
 the database. It's also possible that he's in the Wiznitz cemetery but hi=
s tombstone is unreadable, as happens with many 100 yr old matzevot.

Good luck, Rachel, with your search and your trip.

Bruce

    Dear friends,
    
    I am researching the family of my grandmother prior to a family trip
    to Bukovina, and have some open questions I would appreciate your
    input on.
    
    My grandmother Rachel HUBNER was born in the small village Dikhtinets
    on 1906. Her mother Mirl / Mirtzi TUCHMAN belonged to a big family
    that was well known in the area. Her father Shlomo / Salomon Hubner
    died around 1917 and I do not have any information about him. At some
    point when my grandmother was a child, her family moved to live in
    Wiznitz. Around 1935, she emigrated to Israel, and her mother followed
    her. Most of her siblings were sent to Transnistria and two did not
    return.
    
    There are two things I was hoping find before our trip:
    
    (1) Locating the grave of my great grandfather Shlomo Hubner. I
    originally believed he was berried in Wiznitz, but could not find him
    on JOWBR database for the cemetery in Wiznitz. So it is possible he is
    buried elsewhere. Is there a cemetery in Dikhtinetz, or another big
    cemetery around? Who can I contact that could help with such search?
    
    (1) The family address Wiznitz, so my mother and I could visit the
    house or the street in which my grandmother lived. Any ideas on how
    such address can be found? I have a letter that was sent in 1929 to
    "Familie Hubner, Wiznitz, Bukovina, Romania", but does not mention
    their address.
    
    I am slowly searching the Wiznitz vital records collection from
    1918-1930, hoping to find the death record of Feiwel Tuchman, the
    brother of my great-grandmother, who lived with her in Wiznitz in his
    final years. He died in the 1920's, and maybe was registered in her
    address. But so far was not able to find it.
    
    Would love to receive any ideas or advises, and any other information
    you might have on those families.
    
    Best Regards,
    Rachel Goldberg
    Tel Aviv
