User Comment:
Being born in 1932, this Chiam TOKARZ was the only one of the three Chiams in the proper age range for school 21B, the other Chaims were born in 1908 . The name matched exactly and there seemed to be no reason why this wouldn't be the Chiam at school 21b. Chaim was said to have lived in two addresses, "HOF" and "HOING". Because they begin with the same letters, it seems that these are short for Hofgasse and Honigweg. Chaim's deportation reads as follows :
AUSG 30.3.42 TR 22
Approver Comment:
I agree that this is the person who signed this name in the album. Thank you for your excellent process note. Please enter the date of deportation and transport number into the correct fields on the next stage, and use the secondary sources in the community center to determine where deportations would have gone in March 1942. Best of luck in the next stages.
