Hi Jordan
Let me introduce myself

I was born in 1930 in Chernauti as the Rumanian called it
My son is married to the daughter of Mary and John Ziegler
I personally speak as a volunteer survivor at the Sydney Jewish (holocaust) 
museum and an organisation called Courage to Care

I am particularly interested at addition to the ancestor stories
I have my story recorded in print and plan to start a story with attachments 
from my living relatives and archived stories

My grandfather, Adolph Mechner (1897-1988), was born in Czernowitz and lived 
there until 1918. At age 80, he wrote a detailed family autobiography that I 
thought this group might find interesting. It includes his reminiscences, 
descriptions, and photographs of life in Czernowitz, as well as his later life 
in Vienna and New York.

I've transferred his work from 1,000 typed pages to 
https://mechnerzieglerfamily.com so that it can be read online. Just click on 
"Adolph Mechner" in the Memoirs tab at either the top or bottom of the home 
page.

The site also includes memoirs by his son Francis (my father) and daughter 
Johanna, and interviews with other family members.

I'm an American writer and video game designer, born in New York and now living 
in Montpellier, France. (@jmechner on Twitter/Instagram,

The attached photos show my grandfather in Czernowitz in 1912 and 1914. I hope 
you enjoy his work. My family and I welcome your comments.

Best regards,

Jordan Mechner
