I found Perec's parents as Lejbus born 23 Jan 1892 and died 7 April 1942 and Chaja Laja born 30 Feb 1892 and died 29 Jul 1942 (appears as Chaja-L Zoltkowski in the Hospital database).
Approver Comments:
Thank you for adding his parents' names. I wonder what Perec's living situation was like after his mother's death--we know he moved three weeks later, but with whom did he live?

I found Perec listed in the (Mauthausen inmate list of Jews born in Łódź) as Perec(?) Zoltowski born 20 Dec 1928 in Lodz, Poland. It states he arrived at Mauthausen on 25 jan 1945 from Auschwitz and he had prisoner number 118496.
Approver Comments:
Fascinating! Even with the altered birthdate, I agree this record most likely refers to the Perec Zoltowski we've been researching. Have you been able to find any reference to his deportation to Auschwitz? He's also listed as a student (schüler) in the Mauthausen record, implying further that this is the person we're looking for.
