User Comment:
In the "Notes" section for Abram Naftal, it stated "Weisenhaus" which I found translates to "fashion house" but it also asks if it were meant to be spelled "Waisenhaus" which means "orphanage", which could possibly mean he was an orphan at the time.
Expert Reviewer Comment:
I agree that you have found the student who signed the album. In the future, please leave a note for your fellow researchers letting them know how you determined this was the right person. Also, you are right, he lived at an orphanage. Good luck in the next stages!
Approver Comment:
Nice work! I also agree that this is the student who signed this name in the album. It is much more likely that Franzstrasse was an orphanage than a fashion house. Best of luck in the next stages.
