Nice atlas but the extent of German language is overestimated for 1500 and 1750.
Here is the extent of German (blue color) around 1600 (the end of XVI century):
This is for year 1847 (the map is German-made so - if anything - pro-German biased):
German-speakers = green
Polish-speakers = yellow (Polaken)
Lithuanian-speakers = violet
This is for early 20th century (last decade of 19th century, first two of 20th century):

Some texts:
1) Joseph Partsch: "Schlesien Teil I – Das ganze Land", Breslau 1896, pages 364-367 (chapter "die Sprachgrenze 1790 und 1890"):
(Partsch writes about Poles who lived around Breslau, to the north, east and south of it):
2) Robert Semple: "Observations made on a tour from Hamburg through Berlin, Gorlitz, and Breslau...", London 1814, pages 122-123:
(Semple writes about Poles who lived between Leuthen [Lutynia] and Gross Gohlau [Gałów], to the west of Breslau):
3) Documents from the Central Archive of Provinz Schlesien in Breslau, from the 19th century:
According to these documents in 1826 the ethnic structure of the Laskowitzer Dominium located near Wrocław (Breslau) - which included settlements Laskowice (Laskowitz), Piekary (Beckern), Chwałowice (Quallwitz), Jelcz (Jeltsch), Dziupliny (Daupe), Gross Duppine, Klein Duppine, Zindel, Neuvorwerk (Nowy Dwor) and Ratowice (Rattwitz) - was 89% Polish (391 Wirte) and 11% German (48 Wirte):
Here about Jerzy (George) Treska, who in 1826 lived in Neuvorwerk (Nowy Dwor), near Breslau (Wroclaw):
Treska was among ca. 5000 Poles from around Breslau, protesting against Germanization policies in 1824:
According to these documents, in 1826 - 1827 "Polish community" ("polnische Gemeinde") from Twardogóra (Festenberg) protested against sermons in German language and in 1811 "polnische Gemeinde" from Minken (Minkowice) near Ohlau (Oława) protested against abolishing sermons in Polish:

==============
Back to the 16th century:
Barthel Stein, "Descriptio Tocius Silesie et Civitatis Regie Vratislaviensis", wrote about Silesia in 1513:
"(...) Zwei Volksstämme, die sich nicht nur nach ihren Wohnsitzen, sondern auch nach ihren Sitten scheiden, bewohnen es; den nach Westen und Süden gelegenen Theil nehmen die Deutschen ein, den Theil nach Osten und Norden zu die Polenö beide trennt als eine ganz sichere Grenze die Oder von der Neißemündung ab, sodaß auch in den Städten diesseits die deutsche, jenseits die polnische Sprach vorherrscht. Man erkennt zwischen beiden Völkern einen starken Gegensatz. (...)"
In English:
"(...) It [Silesia] is inhabited by two nations, distinct from each other not only in terms of territories they occupy, but also in terms of customs; Western and Southern parts are inhabited by Germans, while Eastern and Northern parts are inhabited by Poles, both nations are divided by safe boundary along the Oder River starting from the outlet of the Neisse River in such a way, that also in cities on one side of the river we can hear German speech, while in cities on the other side by contrast we can hear Polish speech. Between these two nations there are strong differences. (...)"
Johann Gottlieb Fichte wrote in 1791 about German-speaking Catholics in Lower Silesia:
Oppeln Regency, data from censuses of 1890, 1900, 1905 and 1910:
Changes in ethnic structure of Oppeln Regency from 1819 to 1910:

Year 1910 - 53% Poles (1,169,340) and 40% Germans (884,045), the rest mostly Czechs.
