School #10 was located at Ulica Franciszkańska 13. The street name was changed to Franzstrasse when German occupation began in 1939. You can read more about and see pictures of Ulica Franciszkańska at

User Comment:
After a closer look, we realized there are some similiarities between the two profiles of Pesa Janszewicz and Pesa Janaszewicz. These similarities made us suspicious and we began to wonder if perhaps Pesa Janszewicz and Pesa Janaszewicz are, in fact, the same person. The evidence that led us to this conclusion are the girls birthdays and their addresses. Both girls are born in 1929 and don't have a record of the month or day. As to their street addresses, Janszewicz lived on Joszlew 21 and moved to Muehl 8 7 while Janszewicz lived on B Joselewicza 21 and Muhl 8 7. The difference between their addresses is a mere contrast of some letters but the streets start with the same letter and are followed by the same number. We believe that throughout history, time, and translation, it is very plausible that the girls lived on the same road, in the same apartment, at the same time--therefore they are the same person.

I also agree these are the same person! Your comment explaining your reasoning is quite excellent, and I agree with all of your thoughts. Go ahead and add B Joselewicza 21 (spelled out) to the address fields on this stage. I look forward to seeing what else you can find out about her!

User Comment:
The four people I have added for the mother, father, and siblings all share the same address as Pesa Janszewicz. Also, when we initially searched Pesia Januszewicz we were given two results. Both had the same addresses and information, but the spelling of the last names were different. Therefore, we inputed both names. Because of the four family members spelled their name Janszewicz, we are confident that the correct spelling for the last name is Janszewicz.

I agree you've found Pesa's family! Thanks for entering all of the names as you found them, with both spellings of the last name.
