Zlotów county is a county in the northernmost part of Greater Poland Voivodship Once Zlotow Germany now Flatcow Co Poland.

Before World War II it was area of German Kreis Zlotow including at now some parts of Kreis Deutsch Krone area (Jastrowie).. So this was another area of Prussia given to Poland. I can't identify any town named Zempelkowo or Soessnowd but perhaps they mean the above Zlotwo nonetheless the county is identified as being Old Prussia.
