User Comments:

I believe Gela Rachwerger and Gila Rauchwerger are the same person.  When I searched the name Gela Rachwerger under the "fuzzy" setting for both her first and last name the only search result was for Gila.  The birth date of 1930 corresponds to being of school age.  The addresses I provided were listed under the file for Gila.

Approver Comments:
I agree! As you suggest, in 1941 she would have been 11 years old, the right age to attend school #7b. Excellent work, and thank you for your thorough process note. Good luck in the next stages!

User Comments:

I believe Chaim is Gela's (Gila) father and that Dawid and Fajga are her siblings because all three have the same spelling of their last names, and all three have the same two addresses as Gela (Gila).

Approver Comments:
I agree you have found her family.
