User Comment:
I did a search for L. Szpicberg and didn't find any results so I did a "Fuzzy" search and out of all the matches that came up only one girl fit the age range of 1921 and 1927. She was Lea Spiceberg born 1 May 1924 and she lived at Hohens 10 flat 6 and Holz 5. She also appears with the name Lea Szpielberg with the same aforementioned information and a date in her notes 4.1.43,
Expert Reviewer Comment:
I agree you've found the correct student. Thanks for entering in both her names!

I also agree this is the right person who signed this name in the album. I wonder what the connection is between Spicberg and Szpielerg.

I found Wolf born 20 Aug 1896 and Jochwet born 27 Dec 1901 living at the same address as Lea. I couldn't find anymore information on Lea in the following stages.
