It's a long shot... but I figured making a post is better than not!
My great-grandparents come from a place that was once called Sichts in Schlochau, West Prussia (Pommerania I believe). They were called Frese (also seen spelled Frase and anglicized by part of the family to Fraza upon settling in Illinois at the turn of the 20th century). Has anyone had experience with this region that might be helpful? It was a blip on the map and appears to have been lost over time and political changes in the country.
Thanks
