Historical place· 1945 city pl 53.832, 19.342

Renamed Matule, Pomeranian Voivodeship, Poland

The name the record uses: the GEDCOM raw text on #4428 was the useless "nowadays Matule in Poland", but both EMIG events (Gottfried Puschack #19401, Louisa Thiel Sommerfeld #19402, 10 OCT 1876) carry summary "Mothalen, East Prussia". Mothalen lay in Kreis Mohrungen, East Prussia; it passed to Poland in 1945 (called Milewo 1945-46) and is now Matule, gmina Stary Dzierzgon, Sztum County, Pomeranian Voivodeship.
