i chose this dawid over the rest because he was born on January 14, 1928 ; and in school #2 most of the students were between the age of 10 and 15.

Your explanation is sound. Feel free to move on to stage 2.

I agree that you have found the Dawid Zajac who signed the album. In 1941, Dawid would have been 13 years old, an appropriate age to be attending school #2.
Please go back and explain to me how you decided that this Dawid was the correct one, using the comment field, and I'll be able to confirm your research. Thanks!

i believe i have located dawid lipa zajac's mother, her name is sara rajzla zajac, i believe she is his mother because she was born in 1908, making her 20 years old when dawid was born, which is old enough to be his mother. also Sara Rajzla Zajac and Dawid Lipa Zajac had the same adress, which is HanSeaten 72 8. i have also found that wolf zajac is in the first search, i changed where i found him.

We found a David Zajac with the same birthday, but just a year off. We believe this could be the same person. We found a prisoner number. We also found that he was taken to Mauthausen from Auschwitz.

Thanks for correcting the arrival date. Again, please add in the new spelling, date of birth, and camps to the proper fields. Thank you!
