Found what looks like 2 possible relatives. All lived at the same addresses at the same times.
Abraham Przytycki - DOB 1/9/1930 (possibly a sibling)
Wigdor Przytycki - DOB 11/7/1905

Dates indicated are in European format.

Kristin:

Great job identifying members of Aleks' family -- that will come in extremely useful in future stages. I will mark this as "Possible" simply because we can't absolutely confirm what the family relation is, but I think it'd be safe to go ahead and submit Wigdor as Aleks' father which I can then also mark as Possible.

When looking at Abraham's records, it appears his name was also recorded as Abram which may or may not help out later. Be sure to include that in the comments section just in case!

Something interesting to note -- in comparing the records of Aleks, Wigdor, Abraham (Abram), and Rywka, they all have two changes of addresses on the same days (which would indicate to me that it wasn't simply an error in the record-keeping but that they might have actually switched residences twice in a 2 day period). According to the secondary sources, there weren't any round-ups/deportations from Lodz at the time, so I'm not sure why they would have moved around so quickly, but it might imply something else was going on.

Great job so far -- keep it up!

The arrival date is the when Aleks arrived at Mauthausen from Auschwitz. I haven't found the date he was deported to Auschwitz yet.

Mauthausen was a labor camp in Austria.
