How did the Germans know who the Jews were during the holocaust? Was it a characteristic like eye color or something? Or did they just guess?

    I think surname had something to do with it as well as the fact that most were business owners (made it easy to see who closed up for Sabbath) Mezuzah's by the front door, Menorah in the window for all to see, plus obvious signs and symbols (Star of David and things like prayer shawls worn like aprons by males). I don't think so much hair, skin, eyes etc...so much but I could be wrong? I am blonde with blue eyes. I think surname if I had to just choose one.
