    2. Wendy, Lichtenfeld was in Kreis Heiligenbeil, East Prussia. It was generally located south of Zinfen and northeast of Meldsack. A nearby, larger community was Eichholz. Both Lichtenfeld and Eichholz were located on the main road between Zinfen and Meldsack. For the record, Prussia had it's "beginnings" in East Prussia. Today, Lichtenfeld is Lelkowo, Poland. Eichholz is Debowiec. Be aware there was also a place called Lichtenfelde (with an "e") that was located in East Prussia. This place was in Kreis Preuss-Eylau and generally located northeast of Kreuzburg, by Jesau. Today this Lichtenfelde is located in the Russian Federation, not far from Kaliningrad. Karen B.
