In this group photograph I am trying to figure out which gentleman is Prof.
Moshe Weisinger. It is so hard to see the rows. Does anyone know by chance
which one is Prof Moshe Weisinger? I am sure he is one of my relatives.
Moshe Weisinger was also my grandfather’s name and he left Czernowitz in 1907
to come to NY. My great-grandfather Zallel (Charles) Weisinger died in
Czernowitz about 1920 or 1921 I think.

Does anyone know who the other two people are?
Also,I would like once again to thank all who sent me their warm wishes, thoughts, and suggestions in connection with our “rescue” of my father’s writings

I found this very bright and clear snapshot (attached) of my late uncle Julius Gutmann with a group of happy looking people in 1943. To the best of my recollection, he and my aunt Hilda and cousin Turi together with 40 other Jewish families from Cz or Bukovina traded all their belongings for a ship which they intended to sail to Palestine. I believe this was in 1940.
The ship was not seaworthy and went down off Turkey but no lives were lost and they ended up in a British camp on Cyprus which, apparently, they thoroughly enjoyed.
I am not clear on when they made it to Israel. This picture was taken in Pedoulas, Cyprus. The text is from the back of the snapshot. He mentions some names that are not familiar to me which would have been known by my parents thus I presume they were Czernowitzers.
I would like our group to check the faces to see if anyone recognizes anyone.
Cheers,
Andy

This came from List Member Daniel Dubowy… It is a pdf of something his father did in 1924 in Czernowitz when he was 16 years old.
Daniel explains:
Hi Jerome,
My German is not very good either, I used Google Translate for the
title: semi-monthly journal of the Cernautian school of painting. In
1924 my father was 16 years old, I don’t know if such a school really
existed but I suspect this was a fictitious name for a group of students
with artisitic talents in the school who wrote this journal by hand. My
father *Erich Dubowy has a few drawings inside.

I take no responsibility for the content as my German is worse than Daniel’s. Your comments then are necessary and welcome .

Hello,
You are listed as the webmaster of a site containing maps of Czernowitz… you are probably aware of a street that was named after Moishe Altman, the yiddish author. Altman was the great grandfather of my wife and we are seeking for info, pictures, etc. of the old country and the whereabouts of him. I have been told that the enclosed picture is of the street I refer to. Can you confirm this? Do you have any further information about him?
Thanks beforehand!
David Gleiser
