Here is the newest date in the book, just a few days after her last day of work at the station
September 13, 20232 yr #8 This last seal confirmed the change of her name from "Wolf" to "Röber", obviously after her wedding in 1943. My guess is she ceased working as an employee then so the Arbeitsbuch was not longer used.
