Hi all,

Thank you for your thoughtful responses, though I may have wasted your
time a little bit. I realized I overlooked a grave for a Samuel Binder
in Czernowitz Jewish Cemetery that is most likely him. It is an
unclear photo, but I see the traces of his father's Hebrew name, which
likely seals the deal.

Still, it is always a pleasure to learn from the knowledge of the
members of this group.

All best,
Jonah

The results were, that this group of more than 40k people were much more successful escaping from the Nazi regime than others (less than 5% became victims, the Austrian average was 33%). Theresienstadt was the main deportation place for average Austrian Jewry, but the Jews from Galicia und Bukowina were mainly deported and murdered to/in Maly Trostinec.
