School #6
School #6 taught boys and girls who were deaf or hard-of-hearing. Since it was the only school for children who were deaf in the Lodz Ghetto, its students ranged in age from 6 to 20 years old, and were born between 1921 and 1935.
School #6 was located at Ulica Limanoskiego 45. The street name was changed to Alexanderhofstrasse when German occupation began in 1939. See
www.lodz-ghetto.com for a map of Ulica Limanoskiego and the rest of the Lodz ghetto.

User Comment:
The first name to come up when I searched for Bluma Szajewicz was BLUMA SZAJEWICZ born 1/08/1936 and she lived at BOGANOWSKI 95 and BLATTBIN 14 flat 12. She also had a ghetto note that says SEPT 1942. Not sure if thats a deportation or change of address.
Approver Comment:
I agree this is the most likely candidate to have signed this name in the album. I look forward to seeing what information you find that might clarify what the Sept 1942 date means.

For Bluma's family I found her father as Binem born 02/03/1908 and her mother as Mariem Szajewicz also appears as Eksztejn born 27/04/1907. The was also a Gitla Szmidt born 27/01/1905, Abram Szmidt 1 April 1909 living at the address. I'm assuming Gitla is perhaps Binems Sister and Bluma's aunt.
Approver Comment:
Nice work! I agree that these are likely to be Bluma's parents. We should not jump to conclusions about her relationship to the other people living at that address, but I hope there is information we can find about how these families were related. Best of luck in the next stages.
