User Comments:

In a search for S* Chaimowicz, I changed the search parameters to 'fuzzy' for the last name and only searched +/- 5 years of 1930. The only possible female result that came up was Sara Chajmowicz.

Approver Comments:
I agree that this is the person who most likely signed this name in the album. In 1941, she would have been 9 years old, the right age to attend school #19a. Please remember to list her change of address date in the appropriate field on the next stage.

I matched Sara to her family by looking at who had the same last name and who lived at the same locations as she did. I found a father (Endzel, b. 1896), a mother (Frajda (nee Najhaus), b. 1903), and 4 siblings: Chaim (b. 1920, although perhaps he is an older cousin because given the dates Frajda would have only just turned 17 upon giving birth), Izrael (b. 1926), Ruchla (b. 1933), and Hersz (b. 1935). All lived at either one or both of the addresses also listed for Sara.

All the family members except Endzel and Ruchla (for whom no deportation dates are listed) were deported on September 10, 1942, on which date there was a deportation to Chelmno. It is likely this is where this family ended up.

Approver Comments:
I agree with your conclusions. Thank you for helping complete Sara's record. We do not know for certain that Endzel and Ruchla were deported to Chelmno, but if the rest of the family was deported on September 10, 1942, their destination was indeed Chelmno.
