User Comment:
Multiple names came up but since the age for childeren in scholl 19A was between 7 and 15 then my results narrowed to Halina.
It provided her adress and birth date on the article. There was an additional result on the same girl with the same birthdate but had a different adress whish I listed.
Approver Comment:
I agree this is the student who most likely signed this name in the album. In 1941 she would have been 12 years old, the right age to attend school #19A. Good work!
Thank you for adding the additional addresses. In the next stages, remember to keep an eye out for the date in the notes field on the Siegfried/Blechgasse record, August 23, 1943, so we can try to figure out what it means. Best of luck in the next stages.

User Comment:
Did find a woman and man with the same last names as Halina as well as the same adresses. I assume that they are the parents. Multiple spellings for father. Did find a possible sibling with the name Chaja and shared adress at Sulzf 69 32.
Approver Comment:
On second thought--check out those birthdates. I think Halina and Chaja are the same person! What do you think?
I agree that you've found Halina's parents. Based on the age difference and the shared addresses, these look like the best possible candidates for her mother and father. Good luck finding more information on Halina and her family.
