User Comment:
In a search for B* Komornik, Ber's name was the only one that came up. In addition, his birthdate made him the appropriate age to have attended School #20A.
Approver Comment:
I agree that this is the most likely person to have signed this name in the album. There is no other B Komornik who was born in the right age range for school #20a. Best of luck in the next stages.

User Comment:
I connected Ber to his family via matching addresses. Ber lived with his mother Szosia (b. 1906) and his siblings Chaja (b. 1927), Iser (b. 1932, perhaps a twin?), and Jacob (b. 1928).
With the exception of Iser, who has no information listed regarding his fate, all the other family members were deported on March 30, 1942, during the month of daily deportations to Chelmno.

I agree with your conclusions. Thank you for completing Ber's record.
