In Poland was also tried KriminalKommissar Paul Press, Gestapo Oppeln and in 1940 Gestapo Czestochowa (as Krim-Insp.). He was born in 1883 in Angersdorf (Proschlitz). He was arrested by the Russians and handed over to Polish authorities. He was sentenced in Czestochowa to 6 years in prison.

Following this link (http://dawnytczew.pl/forum/viewtopic.ph ... uss#p37824) Paul Preuss was a priest.

I only translated the introduction:
"Early autumn 1945, prison cell in Tczew. Preacher Pawel Preuss awaits trial by the Special Criminal Court. In the years 1940-1945 he was the pastor of the Church of the Elevation of the Holy Cross and by the bishop Karl Maria Splett supervised the Catholic priests. Preuss threatened the death penalty.
DoB is same as told by george.

I have another Paul Preuss working in the RSHA IV B4 (Lozowick: Hitler's Bureaucrats) ....
