Dear Eddie,
Thank you for your message and here are now - from one Eddy to the other Eddie - more details on Markus Klinger, his family and his work:
1. From my 2013 motorcycle ride to Bukovina I reported on the "Toynbee Hall, a Jewish Educational Institution, Erected a Century Ago in Czernowitz":
https://hauster.blogspot.com/2013/10/toynbee-hall-jewish-educational.html
2. THE expert for the Czernowitz Toynbee Hall and its realisation is Dr. Markus Winkler (see Cc), the author of "Toynbee-Halle in Czernowitz 1913: Zur Rekonstruktion einer jüdischen Bildungseinrichtung" [Toynbee Hall in Czernowitz 1913: On the Reconstruction of a Jewish Educational Institution]:

3. Markus Winkler delivered a lecture on the Toynbee Hall at the International Conference in Czernowitz: Literature • Culture • Civil Society:

In case you read German, three different newspaper archives will provide an outstanding wealth of information to you:
4. Entering "Kislinger" into the search engine of DiFMOE, the Digital Forum for Central and Eastern Europe, leads to 64 matches in "Ostjüdische Zeitung" and 3 matches in "Neue Jüdische Rundschau", both from Czernowitz, covering i. a. the death of Markus Kislinger on 11-Jun-1928:

5. Entering "Markus Kislinger"~10 into the search engine of ANNO, the Austrian Online Newspapers Archives, by restraining the search to Czernowitz leads to another 37 meaningful matches:

6. The "Deaths, Funerals, Obituaries & Memorial Ceremonies" published by "Der Tag" from Czernowitz are listing death, obituary, funeral and acknowledgemet notices for Arnold Kislinger, Markus Kislinger's brother. By the way, the events around his - ALTERNATIVE - burial in Mihaileni led to a major scandal in Czernowitz in 1933:
