User Comment:
The search for Benjamin Goldberg yielded one result which fit the time constraints for the child to attend School #2. However, only a year (1931) is given, the day and month are not.
Approver Comment:
I agree this is the student who most likely signed the album! As you suggest, in 1941 he would have been 10 years old, the right age to attend school #2. Even the year of his birth is more than we knew before, so we count this a success. I look forward to seeing what you find in the next stages!

How did you determine that these are Benjamin's father and mother? Please leave a comment in the comment field explaining your process.
Can you check the date of deportation against the secondary sources to determine to where Benjamin was deported?
