Hi Robert,

This is fantastic information historical information about this village.
Does similiar information exist about other villages? I am interested in a
village directly across on the other side of Lake Goplo. It is a German
settlement Klein Ueberfahrt/Przewoz Maly founded about 1785. It is located
15 km northwest of Sompolno in Parish Polajewo, Deanery Radziejewo.

Dear Diana,
after Slownik Geograficzny, vol.10 p.720-721, ed.1893.

Wl~ostowo/Lostau
A farmers' village and colony at the lake Gopl~o, from 1878 renamed to
Lostau; county Inowroclaw (then Hohensalza) then county Strzelno. Village is
situated at the mouth of the Rechta stream to the lake, south of Kruszwica
and southeast of Strzelno.
Lutheran parish, district office and local court office in Strzelno, railway
stations in Kruszwica and in Strzelno. Post office in the village (Lostau),
Catholic school in Chrosno, Lutheran school in Lostau, Catholic parish in
Koscieszki.
In the village 3 farmsteads, territ.of 66 hectar, 54 residents, betw.them 45
Catholic faith, in the colony 9 farmsteads, territ. of 93 hectar, 93
residents, between them 38 Catholic.
In the year 1145 this was a property of then Benedictine monastery in
Trzemeszno/Tremessen, donated by earl (comes) Wlost together with a big part
of the lake and then approved and accepted by prince Mieszko.
In 1293 Wladyslaw, prince of Cuiavia (the province - today Kujawy) detached
the village from the jurisdiction of the castle in Kruszwica. In 1318 the
Regular Canons of Trzemeszno [they were the owners of the monastery after
Benedictines], sold the village to the bishopric of Kujawy (in Wloclawek).
In 1560 village belonged again to the starostei in Kruszwica (i.e. it was a
Crown property). In that time there was only one farmstead and two
fishermen. In 1793, after the partitions of Polish Republic the village was
taken by Prussian government, and included into the State Domain in
Strzelno. In later times it was divided into two parts, of which one has got
a new name Lostau, the other still have an old name.

Hope you will find this useful

Greetings,

Robert
