School #9 was a school for girls in Lodz. The students in #9a attended classes in the morning. Most students were between 9 and 12 years old, meaning that they were born between 1929 and 1932.
School #9 was located at Ulica Rybna 15. The street name was changed to Fischstrasse when German occupation began in 1939. You can read more about Ulica Rybna at

I agree this is one possible candidate to have signed this name in the album. (I'm also pretty sure this is the same person who you found originally--the names and dates of birth are the same, but the year is off by 10.)
I also see Ester Rachel Nitka, born in September 1931; Ister Liba Nitka, born in December 1931 (another variation on the name you've already listed!), and Ester Rachela Nitke, born in July 1932. The three Ester/Ister Libas are almost certainly the same person, with only minor variations on name spellings and listed date in December (13 and 18 look very similar in handwriting), but I think the other two are also possible candidates. What do you think?

I agree this address corresponds with 1931 Ester Liba; what other addresses do you find for the two other records that point to this same person?
