User Comments:

I clicked on Lejbus randomly and came up with this boy when I clicked on the similair names search. School #1 was for boys 9-15 which fits for this boy and the names are an extremely close match

Approver Comments:
I agree that this is the most likely student to have signed the album. Lejbus and Lajbus often show up as analogs, so you'll want to look for both spellings in the next stages. See you in the next stages!

I found the entire family by searching Blizinski on the USHMM name search. The boy Jankiel Blizinski is the only one who did not move with the family to the second ghetto house of SUD 7 but he moved to SUD 4. The dad as well as the brother's names are Gitman

Approver Comments:
Please do remember to add in the Inselstrasse 35 address, and the date of the move (August 16, 1942).

Gitman is tricky: was he born in 1895 or 1925? Was he the father, or the sibling? In Jewish tradition, normally children are not named for living relatives, so it would be surprising if Gitman were both the father and the son. What's more, they are listed as having the same occupation (Tischler), leading me to think that one of these is actually the record for the other person with an error in the DOB.
