User Comments:
Zysla's record indicates that her age would have been appropriate to have attended school #9B. Because of this, although there is a slight discrepancy in the spelling of her name, we can possibly assume that this is the same person.
Approver Comments:
I agree that Zysla and Zisla are two variations on the same name. Thank you for correcting her date of birth. I look forward to seeing what you uncover in the next stages!

User Comments:
According to the record in the Holocaust Survivors and Victims Database, I found that Moszek, Fajga, and Izrael Tajch all shared Zysla's same address, as well as, a later move to the address Prusa 12. They are also the appropriate ages to have been her siblings. Berek and Liba Tajch, also sharing the same address, could possibly be the parents of these children. I would also like to note that Liba, Berek, and Moszek died while in Lodz. Fajga's record notes "Zentralgefangnis," which after a Google search, I believe is a prison?
Approver Comments:
I agree that these are her family members for the reasons you cite. Why do you think the Prusa 12 address was a later move?

Zentralgefängnis is indeed a reference to the central prison. Were you able to find any more information about what happened to Zysla in the next stages?
