I am still researching my great-grandaunt, Ghinda (Hinda, Dunya) Roitman, née Barg, who appears in the 1936 Cernăuți address directory as a nurse (soră de caritate) living at Piața Fântânii 3.
I have since found her on a 1942 list of Jews assigned to forced labor, and the same address, Piața Fântânii 3, is again recorded. Several other women listed at that address were also nurses. Members of the Jewishing genealogy group on Facebook suggested that Piața Fântânii 3 may have been associated with the Jewish Hospital or housing for hospital staff, especially because the hospital appears nearby on historical maps and that there were many nurses living there. Do you know whether Piața Fântânii 3 was connected with the Jewish Hospital or with housing for nurses and other medical personnel before or during the war? Also, is it possible that Jewish nurses listed for "forced labor" were assigned to continue working at hospitals in Cernăuți rather than being sent to external labor camps? Also, do you know whether any hospital personnel records, residence registers, or Traian Popovici exemption lists survive that might identify Jewish nurses working there? Thank you very much for any guidance you can provide.
