=== Immigration into Poland  ===
Significant numbers of immigrants moved to Poland from 1770–1850. Most of these came from Germany, but others came from the Netherlands, France, and even Scotland. This wave of immigration was caused by offers to settle new lands in Russia. Many of these immigrants had suffered economic losses or religious persecution in their homelands.
A very useful site showing a settlement maps in eastern Poland of people coming in from other areas can be found at this [http://www.sggee.org/deutsch/research_ger/SGGEEMaps_ger.html link]. These maps may also be helpful in doing area searches for people settling in Poland.
