User Comments:
Using a Soundex search of the Lodz Ghetto List for Frajtag turns up this single possibility for Szmul. He is also of the correct age for school 20A and is listed in the database as schueler. Note that this is an "A.M." address, meaning his family lived at Pfeffergasse before and immediately after the creation of the ghetto.
Approver Comments:
I agree that this is the person who signed this name in the album. Please remember to look for both spellings of his name in the next stages.

User Comments:
The other people with the same last name at the same address are assumed to be Szmul's family. THere APPEARS to be an error in the listing of Szmul's address in the ghetto - it is given as Pfeffer Gasse
15 Flat 126 whereas the rest of the family group are listed at Pfeffer Gasse
15 Flat 26. The most reasonable explanation here is that there was a "1" accidentally added to Szmul's record.
Approver Comments:
I agree that these are likely his family members despite the discrepancy in the addresses. Have you found any additional information in the next stages?
