Approver Comment:
I do agree you have found the student who signed the book! In 1941 he would have been 9 years old, the right age to attend school #20A. Excellent job! Both records you've found seem to represent the same person. Thank you for adding both dates of birth to his record.

User Comment:
I found Jakub Icyk born 04/10/1904, Rywka Liba born 16/08/1900, and Mendel born 15/11/1930 all living at Sulzf 90 flat 2 and Kelm 29 flat 16. According to the seconday sources if Michal was deported on 15 March 1942 he would have ended up in Chelmno and killed in the gas vans. I added Chelmno as his death location but I didn't enter in the deathdate since we can't assume the deportees were killed on the same day they were deported. Rywka and Mendel shared Michal's fate.
