User Comment:
When I searched for L. Gdanska only on person was born between the years 1928 and 1934. The girl was Laja Rywka Gdanska born 4 Oct 1929 and she lived at Alexhof 26 flat 63. I also found her under Rywka Lea Gdanski born 1929 and lived at Lipowa 45 and Alexhof 26 flat 63.

Good work! I agree with your findings!

Thank you for entering both spellings of her name. I agree that both records point to the same person, the most likely signer of this name in the album.

I searched through the following stages and couldn't find anymore information on Laja or her family. I found her father as Lajb born 1901, her mother as Jenta born 15/01/1905, her siblings as Icchok/Icek born 08/05/1926, Mordechaj Dawid born 1928, and Fajga born 16/01/1932.
