User Comment:
Records appear to be two different people with Zerkowski seeming slightly more likley due to her occupation being labled as "Schuelerin." As for Czerkowska, she is listed as an "Arbeiterin."
Approver Comment:
Good job. You have offered some valuable leads on Estera Zurkowska. Since we are not sure at this point which person is the Estera who signed the album, I am going to mark your data as "possible" until we narrow it down to just one person (ie, either of these two are possibilities).
Some important notes...
Zurkowski lived at GARTEN 20 and SPERLING 6 flat 2 in the ghetto, and she was deported (most likely to death at Chelmno on September 10, 1942.
Czerkowska lived at KUHLE 6 and SIEGFR 18 flat 24. She may have moved on November 5, 1942; however, it is unclear what this date means.
