Weiss Karl
11.9.1903 - 1.12.1944 Kurland

I write you on behalf of my father Gunter Weis, which is searching the gravesite of his uncle Kari Wendelin Weis.
Karl Wendelin Weis was a soldier of the Wehrmacht and was fighting with the Army Group North (later Army Group Kurland) in November 1944 in the area of Saldus. According to our latest Information he was a member of the 205th Division and he died at the 20th of November 1944.
We were currently informed by German officials, that the grave should be located one kilometer to the north from a "Gut Macit”. "Gut" is a German word for manor or estate, so the name refers to a manor house with the name "Macit". It was mentioned by German authorities, that the "Gut Macit" is located 16 kilometer to the south from Saldus and 12 kilometer to the west from Auce. Additional to that they also stated, that is had been situated next to a monastery or church.
So far! was not able to find that location and we really hope that you can help us to find the location.

Gut Macit - tā varētu būt Mācītāj muiža! Tātad 1km uz ziemeļiem no Mācītājmuižas.

ps. Vēstulē ir minēts, ka kritis 1944. gada 20. novembrī, bet grāmatā ir minēts 1944. gada 12. decembris.

Vai tiešām nebūs nekāda info, kur varētu būt apglabāts šis kareivis? Vai varbūt man kaut kur citur jāgriežas?

According to the grave of your relative, which you provided, I did a thorough job. At that time called "Gut Macit", I used maps of that time to install it on a modern map without any problems. All the notes I attached (there and marked the exact place of the grave of Weiss Karl). I want to express my respect and my deep bow to your relative, Weiss Karl, who defended the Kurland Peninsula from Soviet invaders and died the death of the brave.
