School #8b was located at Ulica Limanoskiego 26. The street name was changed to Alexanderhof when German occupation began in 1939. See

User Comment:
Searching 'Mira' and 'Slodkiewicz' under all the search parameters, I came up with only two results. Of those two, only one was born in the birthdate range to have made her the appropriate age to have signed the album.
Expert Reviewer Comment:

Approver Comment:

User Comment:
I found two relatives living with Mira--Fajga Ruchla (b.1840, perhaps a grandmother) and Laijb (b. 1923, perhaps a brother or older cousin.)
They were all transported on March 15, 1942, on which date there was a transport to Chelmno, and I have determined that this is likely where they met their fate.
Expert Reviewer Comment:
Thank you for adding her family members to her record! Based on secondary sources we have to assume that Chelmno was their place of death.
Approver Comment:
I agree that Chelmno was likely their place of death; you may add this information to this record.
