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:
The woman we wrote as being the mother is the right age and lived at the same residence but could also be a different relative, such as an aunt.
She was born 5/20/1897 and her occupation was "Hausfrau", meaning homemaker.
Approver Comment:
I believe that you are correct. In the case of Brucha, we know that she lived at the same address as Heinrich in the ghetto. However, the source that you cite for Israel is basically hearsay. You would have to contact the person who posted this info to geni.com in order to confirm more fully whether Israel was father to the same Heinrich who signed the Lodz schools album. It does seem likely, though, doesn't it? I'd be curious to know if this person really knows that Heinrich died in 1945, or if it is just a guess.
