Hi Stephen,
I'm very positive we are talking about Siscauti (RO) - Shyshkivtsi (UA). Pl=
ease check my posting "Census of Romania for the Year 1930: Province of Buc=
ovina by Departments and Districts":
http://czernowitz.blogspot.com/2014/05/census-of-romania-for-year-1930.html
Siscauti (RO) - Shyshkivtsi (UA) belongs to "IV. Plasa Sipenizului (Village=
s)" within the Cernauti Department:
http://czernowitz.blogspot.com/p/census-of-romania-for-year-1930.html
This said, according to the 1930, there were 1,631 village inhabitants, out=
of whom 72, i. e. 4.2 %, were Jewish. Radu Ioanid stated in his standard w=
ork "The Holocaust in Romania", p. 107, as follows:
"The mass murders in Bukovina continued to the end of July 1941. On the nig=
ht of July 20-21, more than 150 Jews from Siscauti, Iujineti, Stanceni, and=
Babin were brought to Siscauti under the pretext of being deported. Once l=
ocal peasants finished digging a large grave, however, Romanian gendarmes e=
xecuted the Jews."
Hope, these data will be helpful to you. Warmest wishes!
Edgar Hauster

Thanks. All I am aware is the phonetic sounding Shiskaoutz my mother told =
