School #17A
School #17 was a school for girls in the Lodz ghetto; school #17a met in the morning. In 1941, students ranged in age from 6 to 13 years old (most were 8 to 11 years old), meaning they were born between 1928 and 1935.
School #17 was located at Młynarska 25. The street name was changed to Mühlstrasse when German occupation began in 1939. See
www.lodz-ghetto.com for a map of Młynarska and the rest of the Lodz ghetto.

User Comment:
I looked for an R* Jedwab in the search engine, then entered 1932 +/- 5 years as the birthdate and Rywka was the only possible candidate born in the right time frame.
Expert Reviewer Comment:
Thank you for adding research notes to her record. This will help fellow researchers!
Approver Comment:
I agree! In 1941 she would have been 9 years old, the right age to sign the album for school #17a. The other possible signer of this name would have been too old for this school. Thank you for adding your process note to this record.
