Hugo Gold

Sections on Usov can be found in 2 works by Hugo Gold: Die Juden und Judengeneinden Mahrens in Vergangenheit und Gegenwart (1929) [The Jews and Jewish Communities of Moravia, Past and Present] and Gedenkbuch der Untergegangenen Judengemeinden Mahrens (1974) [Memorial Book of the Lost Jewish Communities of Moravia]. The section on Usov found in the latter is essentially a condensed version of the Usov section found in the former. The chapter on the Jews of Aussee (now Usov), in the 1929 volume, was written by Oskar Kwasnik Rabinowicz.

In addition to describing the history of the town, Gold also includes names of individuals found in various documents from Usov. Below is a (chronological) listing of those names, followed by the year(s) and occupation or other information associated with that name as presented by Gold.

As most of the names presented by Gold come from documents prior to 1787, when Jews in the Austrian Empire were required to adopt surnames, most of them appear in the "X ben Y" form.
