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.

Ghetto Street House: Cranach Strasse, 9 Flat 33
Approver Comment:
This may well be the girl who signed the album, but I have to mark it as only "possible" because the Lodz Ghetto Database lists a second Jenta Laufer born in 1924. At this point, we cannot be sure which was the student who signed the album.

Yes. Though we are not sure that this is the same girl who signed the album. She is listed as having died on this date.
According to the Lodz Hospital Death Records, she lived at "T Str. 9" and was born in 1926 in Lodsch. Her cause of death was "Lungentuberkulose." (tuberculosis)
