User Comment:
I did a fuzzy search on the name Baruch Knap and came up with Boruch Knop, a boy with the right age range for school #20A and the lone result of the fuzzy search. I believe this is the student who signed his name because none of the exact searches for either Knap or Baruch brought up any similar candidates for me.

I agree! Have you been able to find any more information on him in the next stages?
