[Cz-L] Information about Zastavna documents

A few days ago, I received from Alex Denisenko, information
regarding documents issued to people who lived in Zastavna:

Here excerpts from what Alex wrote:
To the best of my knowledge, there are no personal documents
(birth, marriage and death records), which are kept in the archives
of any town.

In the Cz. archives (F 18, description 1) there are several dozens,
if nothundreds, of files about granting Romanian passports to residents
of the Zastavna community, which they could use to travel abroad.
Also, hundreds of cases of personality identifying documents,
which indicate that during WW1 many people from this area had lost
all of their documents as well as all their property and possessions.
For several years Zastavna was on the main front-line of WW1,
known as the "Okna operation".
Some events of this military operation are described in the memoirs
of the chief of staff of the Russian army Jury Danilov.
