Through a Polish researcher, I came upon the following website. (You may have to cut and paste.) Very useful for those of us with ancestors in what was Prussia. Lyn http://www.kartenmeister.com/preview/databaseUwe.asp 'Welcome to the most comprehensive database of its kind in the world. It contains 88327 locations with over 38.691 name changes once, and 5,500 twice and more. All locations are EAST of the Oder and Neisse rivers and are based on the borders of the eastern provinces in Spring 1918. Included in this database are the following provinces: Eastprussia, including Memel, Westprussia, Brandenburg, Posen, Pomerania, and Silesia. It currently list most towns or points, points being: Mills, some bridges, battlefields, named trees, cenotaphs etc. As more information becomes available, (books, maps, your input etc) this database will be updated. You have several ways or criteria to search. 1. German name 2. Older German name 3. Kreis/County 4. By the next larger town, (this is a proximity search.) 5. Today's Polish, Russian or Lithuanian name. 6. by Family Name'
