This one is difficult. The Abram Kahn you list is the only one who appears in the Lodz ghetto database for this stage, but, born in 1919, he's likely too old to have attended school #2 in 1941--most were between 10 and 15 years old. Do you have any thoughts as to other places you might want to look?

Aha! Great resourcefulness and creativity. This one fits a lot better--I'm glad you looked beyond Kahn to Kohn. It's possible that in handwriting, or the transliteration from Yiddish script in Hebrew characters to the Roman alphabet, the letters were transposed or mistaken for one another. Go ahead and continue your research using Abram Kohn.
