User Comment:
We found 3 potential matches in the DOB range that were students. However, upon researching where the girls lived, we found that Ester Masza Goldberg (DOB 16.02.1931) lived the closest, leading us to believe that she is the most likely match to the signature in the book. There was also a note under her information "AG" so I will be looking into this to see if she is on record anywhere else.
Approver Comment:
Please do not use the street addresses to assess whether someone is an appropriate candidate to have signed a name in the album. We do not know enough about the correlation between street addresses and school addresses to determine this. Please add all three students that you found as possible candidates to have signed this name. Also, keep an eye out for "Estera" Goldberg as well as "Ester."
