Ive been doing something very similar but with a different set of maps.
A friend gave me a segment of a couple of old Polish maps for the village of Markostaw, my fathers home.
I dont see a way to attach an image here but Ive put them side by side and you can clearly see that the location of the village today is completely different and the Polish colony is gone with perhaps some marks on the ground and an old ruin.
You can by comparing the map with the google map image see exactly where the mill dams were.
My father had spoken of a lake next to Sielec too. Today the lake is gone most likely because the mill dam there is gone thus draining the marsh leaving only the Luga river bed.
So yes, this sort of thing is possible today in ways people could not imagine just a short time ago!
