Fw: [Cz-L] from Gary Rogovin Sadegura travel information request

Dear Mr. Rogovin
Mrs. Gerti Nahum is right. Steingasse was a well-known street in
Czernowitz, in the middle of the Jewish part of the city. Almost all of its
inhabitants were Jewish. You mentioned that, reportedly, the cemetery was
heavily damaged during allied bombing in W.W. ll . As one who was born in
Cz. , grew up there and lived until the age of 18, I think that this
information is not factually correct. There was no "allied" bombing in WW
II, nothing was damaged in Cz. If your grandmother died in 1923 - 1929, she
was almost probably buried in the Horecza (Horecea) Jewish cemetery, located
near the Russischegasse.
All the best,
Abraham Kogan
