Czernowitzers... We have updated the database “Czernowitzer Deutsche Tagespost - Obituaries & Marriage Notices 1936-1940” by adding the year 1939:
http://czernowitz.blogspot.com/2009/11/joy-sorrow.html A total of 2,812 OBITUARIES and 1,100 MARRIAGE NOTICES are now available for the years 1939 and 1940, however without ethnic attribution. From 1930 onwards, the civil status data (births, marriages, deaths) in Bukovina were no longer kept separately by denomination, but centrally at the registry offices. I will keep you informed of updates and wish you success with your research. We'd like to invite you to share your discoveries with us!

In my previous post I mentioned the Czernowitzer Deutsche Tagespost [Czernowitz German Daily Post]. Published between 1924-1940, the newspaper was a staunchly nationalist-ethnic paper and after 1933 a mouthpiece of the German Reich Ministry of Propaganda. Normally a NO-GO, BUT: While the newspaper agitated against Czernowitz Jews and marginalized them, it nevertheless recorded the WEDDINGS & DEATHS in the city with Teutonic thoroughness. Married or dead, Jews, Christians and people of other faiths were united here and had equal rights. ON THIS BASIS WE HAVE CREATED A DATABASE FOR THE YEARS 1936-1940. http://czernowitz.blogspot.com/2009/11/joy-sorrow.html WHY IS THE DATABASE SO SIGNIFICANT FOR THE INTERWAR PERIOD IN CZERNOWITZ? • There is virtually no publicly available data for this period; the data at FamilySearch ends in 1929 and the local archives have other priorities at the moment. • From 1930 onwards, the civil status data (births, marriages, deaths) in Bukovina were no longer kept separately by denomination, but centrally at the registry offices. • From 1936-1940, the Czernowitzer Deutsche Tagespost published the marriages and deaths almost daily according to the information from the Czernowitz registry office. • The reports often also contain addresses and professions, which are on display in the respective newspaper editions and can be accessed via hyperlinks. In our database we start with the year 1940 and go back chronologically. For 1940 - for just half a year - we have listed as many as 339 marriages and 942 deaths. From this we can draw conclusions about the final size of the database. I will keep you informed of updates and wish you success with your research. We'd like to invite you to share your discoveries with us!
