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.

Please enter Jan's alternate name into the database. He is also listed as Jan WALFELD. Both entries list him as living in Lodz, Poland at Matrosen Gasse 14 before moving to Sulzfelder Strasse 17 Flat 8 (or Sulzfelder Strasse 16 Flat 8 then Sulzfelder Strasse 17 in the ghetto). He was a schueler.
User Comment:
I just wanted to contribute to the research done on Janek Wolfdeld (Jan Wolfeld). He aslo appears as Jan Walfeld born 19 Jan 1924 and he lived at Matrosen 14 and Sulzf 17 flat 8.

I found MAKS MEJER WOLFELD born 22 Sep 1888 and died 29 Sep 1941, JADWIGA JACHET WALFELD/JADWIGA JACHWETA WOLFELD born 24 Feb or Dec 1893, and lastly PAWEL WALFELD/POZEL WOLFELD born 25 July 1920. I'm assuming they are Jan's family and I couldn't find anymore information on Jan or his family.
Expert Reviewer Comment:
I agree you've found Jan's family ! Good work!
