Gymnasium and high school for girls
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 girls 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:
I did an exact search for Mowszowicz and a search for the first initial M, and came up with 6 results. Only three of the results had a birth date within the correct range, and only one was a female. I then came to the conclusion that M. Mowszowicz was Mina Mowszowicz, born August 8, 1924, and lived on Hohens 24 37 and Andrzeja 58.
Approver Comment:
I agree with your process, but am curious if you also considered Mirl Moszowicz (not an exact fit for the last name, but we see Mowszowicz and Moszowicz as analogues), born in 1926? I think she could also be a candidate to have signed this name in the album.
