I found one match for Josek Kosciuszko. He was born 1931, which matches the previous suspected mistranscribed match of Josek Joscinszko. Birthplace is listed as "Lodsch." His cause of death was "Tbc. intestini" and his date of death WAS listed as 18 Mar 1943. Oddly, the document was dated as 3 days prior, on 15 Mar 1943. Josek's address is "BD Str. 64." I believe BD Str. in the Hospital Death Records is actually Sulzfelderstrasse, which the address for Josek Koscinsko in the inhabitants list. I found another example of the BD/Sulzfelder match: A Michal-Sz Kac, born 1926, is listed in the Lodz Ghetto Hospital Death Lists as living a "BD Str. 19." In the Inhabitants List, there is a Michal Szulim Kac, born 1926, listed as moving to "SULZF 19." It's just too much of a coincidence. I strongly believe that Josek Kosciuszko and Josek Koscinszko are the same person and that he is the student who signed the book.
