User Comment:
After searching for Szymon Abramowicz in the USHMM database, I found one student who fit the proper age for a boy in school #18A. There was a student, Szmul Szymon who would fit the profile and I believe it is highly probable that this student would have gone by his middle name. For these reasons I am confident that Szmul is this student.

I agree this is the person who signed this name in the album. Thank you for correcting the street address. I look forward to seeing what you find in the next stages.

I agree. Can you use the secondary source materials in the community center where a deportation at this time would have gone?
