Jacobshausen (Gemeinde Schwessin), Ziegelei (Gemeinde Schwessin) and
Reinwasser were all in Kreis Rummelsburg in Hinterpommern. There are
Adamshof in several locations but I found none in Pommern.

There have been two Schwessin (both today Swieszyno) in the
former Prussian Province Pommern (Pomerania). One was
located in the Landkreis (county) Koeslin (today Koszalin),
the other in the Landkreis Rummelsburg (today Miastko).
I guess that your Schwessin will be the Rummelsburg one
because Jacobshausen has been part of it. Reinwasser (today
Piaszczyna) was located in Landkreis Rummelsburg, too.
Adamshof (today Adamowo) was part of Schwerin (today
Zierzynek) in Landkreis Regenwalde/Pommern (today Resko).
There have been three other Adamshof in the lost eastern
provinces, two in East Prussia, and a third in the eastern
part of Brandenburg.

Ziegelei means brickyard. If Schwessiner Ziegelei is
mentioned as a location the brickyard will have been some
miles out of teh village.

I'm looking for a small place near Königsberg, which was known as Ladwyg (Ladewygg) at the beginning of 1800.
Do you know where Ladwyg is today; what is its present name?

Schwessin, Jacobshausen and Reinwasser are located in Kreis Rummelsburg,
Pommern, Prussia. Icould not find Adamshof in my reference book.

I don't know if that Schwessin is the same as you Schwessiner Zingelei.
There is another Schwessin in Kreis Koslin-Bublitz, Pommern, but I
could not find any towns named Schwessiner Zingelei.

Good luck.

Please be informed that a "Ziegelei" is a factory from bricks - where bricks are "burnt". So "Schwessiner" might discribe a "Ziegelei" in/near a village "Schwessin" (??), or a family or company name.
