Czernowitz EHPES List
The purpose of the this site is to provide a collection point for materials (stories, histories, photographs, lists, maps, links, etc.) that are of interest to list members and other researchers concerned with genealogy and the history of the Jewish community in the Czernowitz – Sadagora area.
Anyone interested in information of ancestors native to this area should reach out to this discussion group. The knowledge base and detail is remarkable.
It costs nothing to join (so the price is right!) and amounts to a support and discussion group where we seek each other’s help and share our knowledge. We are in fact something more akin to an internet community of friends.
