[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Montig, West Prussia

[Jerry Frank]

Yes, Montig is Ma~tyki.  You can confirm this with a search at 
http://www.kartenmeister.com

The closest match I can find for Gregorufka in Poland would be 
Gregorowce which would have a very similar sound for 
pronunciation.  It is nowhere near Montig.  It is located in eastern 
Poland, about 14 km SSE of Bielsk Podlaski at N52/39, E23/16, not far 
from the border with Belarus.

What is the source of your info.  Are there other clues that might 
help to narrow down the location?
