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 girls 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.

Her time of birth would have her be in gymnasium. Her last name is the same and her first name begins with an E.
Approver Comments:
I agree that you have found the student who most likely signed this name in the album. Thank you for correcting the sources. Don't forget to look for both spellings of the last name in the next stages. Good luck!
