the Atlantic Bridge to Germany, Vol VIII by Charles M Hall has an
extensive index of old and new names for the villages and towns of
Prussia. Wielitzken is now located near Rastenberg.

Try the FEEFHS web site for old maps. Also the above reference includes
maps but does not include all villages. Rastenberg is now in Poland and
to obtain family records you will have to write to the Archives in
Warsaw. You can do it in English but the response is in Polish.

the address is:
NACZELNA DYREKCJA
ARCHIWOW PANSTWOWYCH
ul. Dluga 6, skrytka pocztowa nr 1005
00-950 Warszawa
Poland
Do not send money, as they will tell you what it will cost before they
do the search. Keep the English simple and wait patiently.

Happy huntng, Hal
