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 Comments:
I found two names Aleksander and Alexander Bajer with the same birth date, addresses, and occupation making me believe that they are the same person.
Approver Comments:
Great work! I agree that both of these boys are the same person, and that he would have been the right age to attend Gymnasium in 1941. Remember to look for both spellings of the first name in the next stages. Thanks and good luck!
