User Comment:
When looking for Chaim Szapiro, I used his school number to determine what age bracket he might have belonged to. From there, I looked for a Chaim Szpiro that was born between the years of 1937 to 1932. From there, I chose the one that fit that age bracket, which there was only one. I also added the information under the chosen Chaim Szapiro such as date of birth, and any addresses that applied. Upon review of this submission, I corrected the date of birth. In the notes, it states "AUSG TR 2". This meant that he was deported.
For Chaim Jakob SzapiroThere was a note stating "PRZ DOM 22. 28 10 42". This would mean that he moved to a different house down the street.

Thank you for adding both possible candidates. Please use the research notes field to add a brief mention of which information goes with which boy so we can keep them straight. Best of luck in the next stages!
