  1. It's 87 miles NNE of Warsaw. Prussia became part of Germany during the unification in 1871. It controlled just under 1/2 of what we now call Poland until the end of WWI in 1917. So technically all Poles living in West Prussia were Germans. If you have their names, I'd be happy to track them in immigration records and the Posnan Marriage Index to see if there are any records on them.
