Gymnasium and high school for boys
Gymnasium and high school students were typically between 14 and 20 years old. A gymnasium student in September 1941 was likely born between 1921 and 1927.
The gymnasium and high school for boys was located on Otylii. The street name was changed to Ottilienstrasse when German occupation began in 1939. See
www.lodz-ghetto.com for a map of Otylii and the rest of the Lodz ghetto.

User Comment:
After finding an Ofenbach that matched the sex and age of H. Offenbach, I used the Jewish Heritage Museum website to determine of Chaim can be found as a name starting with H--It can Haim. http://data.jewishgen.org/wconnect/wc.dll?jg~jgsearch~model1~GNDB
Approver Comment:
I agree you have found the person who signed this name in the album. In 1941 he would have been 14 years old, just barely the right age to attend Gymnasium. Nice work!
I see three records for the same person, all Chaim Ofenbach born on October 3, 1927: two from the fifth volume of the Lodz Ghetto Inhabitants Database, and one from the first four volumes of that Database. Please look through all three records and enter all relevant information into this stage. Thanks!
