The village is close, but on the wrong side of Ortelsburg. My family lived about the same distance but to the east of the city.
So the distance between them would be only 18 km or so. Still looks like the same family.
Also, if your family lived 12,5 km east from Szczytno / Ortelsburg, they lived in a +75% polish territory, according to the previous map.

which, together with their polish surname, indicates clearly their polish origin.
