The map below is a combination of maps found on the website for Map Archive of Wojskowy Instytut Geograficzny: http://english.mapywig.org/news.php. The map below is derived from the following areas: Kościerzyna, Tczew, Małbork, Czersk, Starogard Gdański, Sztum, Tuchola, Nowe, Łasin-Kwidzyn. I used Image Composite Editor to merge the maps into a panorama of the area where my ancestors were located. The map is not 100% aligned, but it does give a general idea of where villages were located.
