User Comment:
I searched the database under the exact setting for the first and last name, and immediately returned a match for Efraim Kestenbaum. His occupation is listed as Schueler, and his date of birth places him within the appropriate age range for having attended School #20A. His notes also, unfortunately, include a deportation date of 12.09.42.
Expert Reviewer Comment:
Excellent research. I found the exact same thing. BTW - There were a few other entries for Efroim Kestenbaum, but I was able to eliminate him as a match, because he was too young.
Approver Comment:
I agree that this is the student who signed this name in the album, for the reasons you suggest.
