I agree that this is the most likely candidate to have signed this name in the album and agree with your reasoning. Her record also indicates that she was a student (Schuelerin). Thank you for your research!

I connected Chawa to her family by matching addresses. Chawa lived with her mother, Marja (b. 1890), and siblings/cousins Kiwa (b. 1919), Josef (b. 1923), and Brajna (b. 1929). 

Chawa, Dyna, and Marja were all deported on September 10, 1942, on which date there was a deportation to Chelmno. Josef moved to Am Bach on January 29, 1943, and no information beyond that is listed. Kiwa died of unknown causes on April 24, 1942.

Approver Comments:
Thank you for adding Chawa's family to the record! Due to the information from secondary sources we have to assume that they were killed in Chelmno.
