Hi,
I recently joined this mailing list in the hope of shading a bit of light on my family's past.
My grandmother was named Johanna Altmann. she was born in the city of Czernowitz in 1907 and emigrated to Innsbruck in 1914.
Later in life she met my grandfather and emigrated to Udine (Italy), city where my mother and I were born. Unfortunately she died before my birth.
She was daughter of Johan Altmann and Matilde Rusch.
My current partner is Jewish and she thought that my grandmother's surname might be Jewish as well.
I had never thought about this possibility before as I grew up in an evangelic church in my town and had almost no information on my grandmother's past.
By enquiring my mother I could only find out that she did speak Yiddish but have no further information.
I would much appreciate if anyone may have some information related to Altmann's family that may help me clarifying my origins.
Many thanks,
Enrico
