Subject: Sandstadt
In regards to finding a place called Sandstadt, please note:
I tried to find this place with the help of 3 excellent and very reliable reference sources:
1) Meyers Orts und Verkehrs Lexikon des Deutschen Reichen, 1912 Edition = Result: No such place could be found
2) Muellers Grosses Deutsche Ortsbuch, 1958 Edition = Result: No such place could be found. ( Since this source is only from 1958,
I did not put too much weight on this result )
3) Hoefer Verlag, Map # PL 777 for "Polen", Ortsnamenverzeichnis polnisch - deutsch / deutsch - polnisch: No such place is listed.
I know of a place called Sanddorf ( Polnisch: Wdzidzen ). A Izydor Gulgowski ( one of the well known Kashubian teacher and historian )
used to live there in around 1920 - 1925 . You can put the name " Sanddorf or Wdzidzen in " Google map " to see where this village is located.
I know it is not Sandstadt, but maybe, just maybe, somebody made a mistake (?) " NEVER SAY NEVER "
