	Map showing current location of Kobersteins in Poland * Here is a great web site to find current Koberstein, Koberstejn, or Kobersztejn locations *  I have recently found out that there are Koberstein families still in Poland.  The map below gives a distribution of these directory listings by pre 1999 province.  On January 1, 1999 these provinces were consolidated.  The distribution of Koberstein families largely follows the early distribution, however none were found in Pita or Gorzow Wielkopolski.  Both of these areas had Koberstein families in the 1800's.  The person who looked this up for me said, "I was surprised to see there is a listing -- so many ethnic Germans fled from Poland after World War II that we ususally don't find many names that are obviously German in origin.  German names that were common in Poland before 1939 now show up with tiny numbers, or don't show up at all, so I halfway expected there'd be no Kobersteins."  William F.

Here is a map of the three polish partitions and their times, use this to determine area people were in during thier life events.

Here is a picture of the Polish Lithuanian Commonwealth in 1772 before the partitions. It is very interesting the Lidzbark, which is just above Colonie Brinks is inside an odd spit of land East and a bit South of Gdansk, what an odd boundry.

Before 1789 the Holy Roman Empire is given below. Any emigration to the Prussian areas before this time have many location.
