User Comment:
For the initial search, I searched Rachel Hendelsman using a fuzzy search. This returned with the name Rachela Temera Handelsman. I believe this is the correct student due to her year of birth falling in the range of the school that she attended. I then added the rest of her information.

I agree with your conclusions. Best of luck in the next stages.

To find her family members, I searched the last name Handelsman and then searched through the 88 individuals with that last name. The result of this was the discovery of two sibling (one born in 1936 and the other born in 1937) and a mother born in 1897 and a father born in 1903. They were all deported on the same transport.

I agree you have found her family members. Thank you for adding her transport number--can you find any more information about what might have happened to Rachela?
