The articles in Britannica regarding Prussia and Baltic languages state that Prussian was spoken until 17th century. The wiki article says that:Some sources claim that the last ethnic Prussin was burnt on the stake in the mid 14 century
I see no reason for the German colonists to speak the language of the inhabitants, so it seems that a Prussian ethnicity survived well until the 17th century, anbeit by their language.Old Prussian probably ceased to be spoken around the end of the 17th century with the Great Plague.
