User Comment:
When I perform a search on "Hersz Kohn" w/parameters for birth date set to a five year +- range around 1930, I get five names returned. All of them are possible matches; however, this particular person is the only one who was listed as a student ("SCHUELER"). Therefore, I am entering him as the most likely match.
Approver Comment:
I agree that this is the most likely candidate to have signed this name in the album. Thank you for leaving a note for your fellow researchers letting them know how you determined this was the right person. See you in the next stages!
