A photo of six men, probably the brothers of Zamek Kurc, taken at the turn of the 1920s and 1930s, most likely in Łódź,. First from the right, at the bottom - Zamek; others unrecognized.

In the State Archives in Łódź, there is a family registration card for the census, drawn up before 1918, with the surname and first names in German spelling (surname: Kurtz, has been probably changed to Kurc in the 1920s). The Kurtz family, Rebeka née Nachtigal (born 1877 in Izbica) and Gedali (born 1958 in Łęczyca), had eight children (all born in Łódź): Wolf (born 1893), Aron (1897), Abraham (1897) , Dora (born 1899), Lasan [?] (born 1902), Gutscha (Guta)(born 1902), Józef (born 1904) and Zalman (1907). They lived at 44 Cegielniana street. (See https://szukajwarchiwach.pl/39/221/0/4.12/24802/skan/full/KHnnnerRJbkhcLJWhfjamA [accessed 17 March 2021]).
