User Comment:
In a search for Sz* Minski, only one result came up whose birthdate was in the range to make the student the right age to attend School #20B.
Approver Comment:
I agree that this is the person who most likely signed this name in the album. In 1941, he would have been 9 years old, the right age to attend school #20b. Nice work!

User Comment:
Szmul had three relatives that I could find and whom I found by matching addresses: a father (Majer, b. 1902), and two siblings (Moszek, b. 1924) (Aron, b. 1930).
All four were deported on transport 15 on March 25, 1942, during the month of daily deportations to Chelmno.
Approver Comment:
Thank you for adding Szmul's family to the record. Due to the deportation date we have to assume that the family was killed in Chelmno. Thank you for your research!
