School #4 was a religious school in Lodz that taught girls; school #4b met in the afternoon. Most students were between 9 and 14 years old, meaning that they were born between 1927 and 1932.
School #4 was located at Ulica Brzezinska 41. The street name was changed to Sulzfelderstrasse when German occupation began in 1939. You can read more about Ulica Brzezinska at

User Comment:
Added Inselstrasse 2 and Reitergasse 9 after receiving review email.
Initially, I used a search on Jewish Gen searching Milgrom. Multiple lists came up, and I selected "Lodz Ghetto" list. I began searching for Milgrom and this name came up with the proper potential birth date (it was in the correct age range) I then entered the information.
Expert Reviewer Comment:
Looks like we found our kid who signed the album! As a result of her attending school #4B, she would have to be born between 1927 through 1932. With her born in 1928, it looks like we have a match. You can go ahead and remove the Lodz,Poland,Lodz Ghetto, Poland from the ghetto street address, as this is not confirmed yet. As well as the camp. Also add in the other ghetto address that is found in the database. Next time please make sure you tell us how you come about the research in the researcher comments, so we can follow your work. Looking forward to following this mystery!
Approver Comment:
I agree that you have found the most likely candidate to have signed the album, and agree with your expert reviewer's evaluation as to why she is probably the right person. Did you perform this search on JewishGen or in our databases? If you used JewishGen (though our databases are built on the same information), be sure to cite your source properly. Thanks!
