Gymnasium and high school for boys
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 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.

Approver Comment:
Good. Both are students, and both live at the same addresses Rembrandt Strasse 1, then Hohensteiner Strasse 11 Flat 14b. Clearly, the two entries for Jerzy Jedwab are for the same person (despite birth dates that are one year off). Even though 1927/1928 would have put Jerzy on the young side to have been in gymnasium, I think you are probably correct that he signed the album. That said, you cannot discount the possibility that Jakob Wolf Jedwab (b. 22/05/1922) may be the boy who signed the album.
User Comment:
I went ahead and added in Jerzy's addresses and I added Jakob Wolf's information as well since he is also a candidate to have signed his name as J. Jedwab. I also found Jerzy listed with the surname JEDERAB born 18 Nov 1927 and living at Rembrandt 3/1 flat 20.
Expert Reviewer Comment:
Thanks for adding in the additional information and I agree Jakob was also a candidate to be the signer. Good luck in stage two!
Approver Comment:
Thank you for adding the additional candidate, the additional information and all the addresses. I hope we're able to clarify who might have signed this name as you research in the next stages.

User Comment:
I couldn't find anyone else living at the same address of Jakob, I found Ita Kempinska born 26 not 1902 living at the same address of Jerzy. I couldn't find any information on either boy.
Approver Comment:
Thank you for adding the information from Jerzy's labor card. I'm sorry you were unable to find any more information--I hope we're able to learn more as more information becomes available.
