Dear list members, I am researching several Czernowitz and Vashkivtsi families (Katz, Kamil, Dermer, Rosenheck, Stieglitz, Kupferschmidt, Steinhauer). The house-by-house census books of Czernowitz for 1869, 1880 and 1890 (Chernivtsi State Archive, fond 39, opys 3 - about a hundred volumes) are viewable on FamilySearch as image groups, but as far as I can tell they are not indexed anywhere.
Before I start reading them page by page, I would like to ask: 1. Has anyone transcribed or indexed any of these census books, fully or in part (a street, a district, Jewish households only)? 2. Is anyone working on the Czernowitz material of USHMM RG-31.006M (1942 family declarations, evacuation and exemption files)? I have a full transcription of all 37 reels (about 3,700 family declarations plus lists and correspondence) and would be glad to compare notes and avoid duplicate work. If there is interest, I would be happy to share what I produce, so it can become useful to others researching Czernowitz.
