Gymnasium and high school for girls
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 girls 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 Comment:
I searched the database under the fuzzy setting for the last name of "Lebkel",and it returned two entries for young women born within the age range for attending Gymnasium, but based on the first initial of "S' it seems as though Chaja Sura (I believe that she signed with her middle initial and last name Lebkele) was the more likely match. Chaja was born on January 17, 1925 and resided at Cranach 8 1 and Cranach 12. No further information was listed under her database entry.
Approver Comment:
This does appear to have been the right person to have signed this name in the album. Did you look under both Sura and Chaja in the next stages?
