User Comment:
Szlomo and Szlama are quite similar and Slzama's birthdate was in January of 1929, making him the appropriate age to be a student at School #20A.
I found that there was an older person, a female, and possible relative of Slzama, Sura Fajner, who moved, like he had, from Sulzf 42 #2 to Opoceno. She was born in 1891, and was an Arbeiterin, a worker.
Approver Comment:
I agree you've found the person who signed this name in the album! One quick note: Opoceno isn't a street name, but rather a city outside of Lodz. Please move this name from the street address field to the "research notes" field, since it was not in the ghetto. You can list Sura's name in the family name fields in the next stage.
