User Comments:

I did a search of Zajdenfeld and only one boy matched with the dates 1926 through 1931. His name was Lewi Icchok Zajdenfeld b. 02/03/1927. He lived at Bier 24 and Korn 9 12. He was deported on 25/02/1942 on TR 4/2.

Approver Comments:
I agree that this is the only male Zajdenfeld in the database born in the right age for school #2. If we expand the names that might be similar to "Zajdenfeld," there are a few other candidates, so I will mark this information as possible, but I do agree that this is the most likely possibility so far.

Thank you for your consistently thorough comments, as well!

Lewi was the son of Chana Frajndla Zajdenfeld b. 1890 and he was the sibling/cousins of Chana b. 21/01/1918, Basia 22/12/1922,  Perla b. 15/11/1929, Luba Frandla 29/12/1924, and Abram b. 1925. They were all deported on TR 4/2 on 25/02/1942. According to the secondary resources the family were sent to Chelmno where they were killed in the gas vans.

Approver Comments:
You seem to have found one of the few cases (in the signatures we have up so far, since we haven't uploaded them all!) of many members of a family signing the album, albeit in their respective schools: you've now researched Basia, Abram, and Lewi, and I'd be interested to hear what the experience has been like for you as the researcher to discover the fate not just of one student but of multiple related signers.

Again, I will mark this research possible until we know more about the other possible candidates.
