School #8B
School #8 was a school for girls in Lodz. The students in #8b attended classes in the afternoon. Most students were between 9 and 15 years old, meaning that they were born between 1926 and 1932.
School #8b was located at Ulica Limanoskiego 26. The street name was changed to Alexanderhof when German occupation began in 1939. See
www.lodz-ghetto.com for a map of Ulica Limanoskiego and the rest of the Lodz ghetto.

I found Rachela Rabinowicz born 1930 and living at Reiter 5
flat 29 and Zieten 44 and moved on 8.4.42 to Alexhof 13. She also appears with
the birthdate of 30 June 1930 and living at Alexhof 13 flat 12 and Rieter 5/23
and deported on 19.9.42.

Great job!

I agree you've most likely found the student who signed this name in the album! In 1941 she would have been 11 years old, the right age to attend school #8b. Thank you for your thorough listing of her movements in the ghetto as well.

User Comment:
I found Chana Rabinowicz living at the same address and also
deported on the same day as Rachela. I’m guessing since Chana was born
11/08/1867 she must be a grandmother to Rachela. For her father I found Jakob
born 21/07/1895 and her mother Mania born 1897 and her older brother Izaak
Szyja born 08/01/1923 and died 27/08/1943.
Expert Reviewer Comment:
I agree with your conclusions.
Approver Comment:
I agree with most of your conclusions and agree that you have found Rachela's family. However, the September 19 date falls outside of the Gehsperre Aktion timeline in the first half of September 1942--it is likely she was deported to Chelmno, but we do not know for sure from the source you cite.
