User Comment:

The birthdate that is designated in the database matches the same year the child would have been in school.

There are two children with a december birthday. We can conclude that it is the same child. We cannot assume the correct birthdate.

Address: Steinmetz 8A 26

Transported to Chelmno on the 10th

Approver Comment:
Please insert Josef's name into the "Name" field so we know what spelling the database uses.

I agree that the Josef you have found is a possible candidate to have signed the album for school #1, since students at school #1 in 1941 were born between 1926 and 1932. Do note, however, that there are two separate entries in the database for a Josef Horowicz born in 1929: one December 23, the other December 28. The similarity of these dates and the fact that both have the same address leads me to believe that these are the same person, but we can't yet tell which date is the correct one. Please enter December 28, 1929 as another possible birthdate for Josef.

The 10th of what?

See you in stage 2!
