----------------------------Original message---------------------------- A patron here is looking for the location of a town that was in East Prussia in about 1870. It's Mettkeim or possibly Mettheim. We couldn't find any reference to this place in gazetteers or atlases covering what was then East Prussia (I believe this would be in today's Poland, Lithuania, and Russia). Our collection is thin with respect to historical maps of Europe. Can anyone help with this town's location and non-German name? Thanks... .------.
