User Comment:
When I searched M. Sierakowiak I searched for male students born within the years of 1926 and 1932 mainly becacuse M. Sierakowiak attended school #18b where the boys would have been between 9 and 15 years old. The date only brought up one name which was Moses Majer Sierakowiak and he was born within the right timeframe. Also his accoupation was a schueler which is a student. I did see through my reasearch that Moses had two adresses, the one listed above and Alexhof 4, 7.
