School #23
School #23 was a school for girls and boys in Lodz. Students were between 8 and 20 years old (most were 9-14), meaning that they were born between 1921 and 1933.
School #23 was located at Ulica Jagiellonska 16. The street name was changed to Bertholdstrasse when German occupation began in 1939. You can read more about Ulica Jagiellonska and the rest of the Lodz Ghetto at

User Comment:
I was originally looking for Rojza Oszerowics on the general Lodz Ghetto Inhabitants database, but I only found two woman with this name that did not match up with the age range in the school. I decided to use fuzzy search for her name and found Rojza Ostrowicz. I lost her and went looking for her in the general Lodz database and found someone named R. Ostrowics. Knowing that this was another person, different from the one I started my research from because I realized that it had to be her. I looked at the School #23 age range (1921-1933) and realized that it had to be her. Rojza Ostrowicz was born in 1929.
Approver Comment:
I agree this is the person who signed this name in the album, for the reasons you suggest. The other candidates would have been too old to attend school #23.
For the addresses, please note that S. Ob. is a note, not an address--it refers to the record above this record in the original handwritten database. Please remove S. Ob. from the street address field, but you can list Inselstrasse 17 12, her address after December 1942, into this field--we learn this from the notes field on her record.
