User Comment:
I think this is the right person because she would have been the right age for a student.
There is another student with the same birth date named Estera Laks. She lived in the same area as well. It's possible these are the same people.
Approver Comment:
I agree! As you suggest, in 1941 Ester/Estera would have been 9 years old, the right age to attend school #4a. I also agree that these names both point to the same person. Great work, and I look forward to seeing what else you uncover!
