User Comment:

We found out that Cypa is a nickname for Cypora. We typed in C* in the database with her last name exact, and this name came up. Her date of birth was in the range that it should have been. 

 

Cypa's record says, "GEST 2.11.42" meaning she died on November 11, 1942.

Approver Comment:
I agree this is the most likely candidate to have signed this name in the album. Have you looked at Cypra Fajga Zysman? She was born in 1935, but her date of birth (also May 31) and alternate name (Wajcman vs Grajman?) make her a little too close to this Cypa for comfort. What do you think about her?

User Comment:

We searched the hospital records for someone with the same last name, and found a boy born 11 years after Cypora (Abram). He has the same two addresses as she does, so they are probably related. His alternate last name was "Grajman" which is also that Cypa.

We searched the Holocaust Survivors and Victimes Database for someone with the same last name born in the time frame in which a parent could have been born. We found Golda Zysman whose alternate last name, like the other two victims we found, is Grajman. She, too had the same addresses as Abram and Cypa.

Approver Comment:
I agree with both of these conclusions; please list any alternate names where you see them. Thank you for helping to complete Cypa's record. Remember to look for Cypra and let us know what you think about her in the first stage.
