Subject: RE: [czernowitz-l] Can anybody help?
Hi,
Further to my original request, after some lateral thinking and more
research I have managed to answer my question. The family in question
appears to have undergone a change of surname at some stage from Donnensaft
to Doregger.
I ordered copies of documents which verified my theory, however I would like
a translation, if possible, of an addition to these documents which I think
confirm the change of name. A request has been made at the following
address.

Thank you in anticipation,
Frank Suss

Subject: [czernowitz-l] Can anybody help?
Hi,
My name is Frank Suss from Melbourne, Australia.
My mother, Edith Suss nee Grünberg, was born in Czernowitz in 1910, the
daughter of Isidor (Itzie) Grünberg, born in Korolowka and Regina (Rachel)
Amster (paternal) or Binder (maternal), born in Czernowitz. The family moved
to Vienna circa mid-decade.
Before her death in 2008 I had asked her about her early life however this
discussion never eventuated.
After the death of my mother, my wife discovered a bag of photographs which
we had never seen. Among them are postcards dated variously from 1910,11 and
12 addressed, in German, to either of my grandparents at Springbrünnengasse
42 from a family, I assume on holiday, taken at Franzensbad.
What I find infuriating is that only given names are mentioned and I am not
sure if there is a family connection, although the wife pictured in these
cards appears to bear a resemblance to a photo that I assume is of my
grandmother. The attached photo is dated 1910 and the adult names mentioned
are Salomon and Berta. From another card I think the girl’s name may be
Edith, the boy unknown.
In addition there is another photo, taken in 1962 in Czernowitz, which I
have had translated, I think from Romanian, saying, “ To dear Edith (my
mother’s name was Edith), beloved of Koko, from her aunt Zuza Laub. I have
never been told of Zuza Laub, however the name Koko is mentioned in the
previously mentioned postcards.
Does anybody know how I may be able to determine who these people are. I
have trawled through several genealogy sites with little success, finding my
mother’s birth certificate, her parents wedding certificate, plus the
wedding certificate of my maternal great-grandparents, translation attached,
that mentions several siblings of my maternal grandmother.
Kind regards,
Frank Suss.
