School #17 was a school for girls in the Lodz ghetto; school #17b met in the afternoon. In 1941, students ranged in age from 9 to 15 years, meaning they were born between 1926 and 1932.
School #17 was located at Młynarska 25. The street name was changed to Mühlstrasse when German occupation began in 1939. See

User Comment:
I believe there is enough evidence to presume that Brana Eisenstein is the same person as Brana Eisenszstein, as they have the same birthdays, occupation (Stickerin) and Ghetto addresses. It is equally plausible that these two identities are the student profile B. Eisenstein, as their birthyear fits within the range of the school. Brana probably moved locations on 01/09/42, from Hamburgerstrasse to Warta.
Expert Reviewer Comment:
I agree. Thank you for adding both name spellings to the record. Best of luck in the stages!
Approver Comment:
I agree that these records both point to the same person--the names Eisenstein and Eisensztein are often seen as analogues for one another in the database. Please remember to look for both spellings in the next stages. What do you think Warta represents? Is it a street address, or something else?

User Comment:
There were no major deportations on the day she moved, so she likely just changed home addresses.
Approver Comment:
We're not entirely certain what this date means, but I agree with your inference that this does not represent a date of deportation. Have you been able to uncover any additional information in the next stages?
