According to Meyers gazetteer...

Blugowo, am Gro$en See, village of 156 residents, Kreis Wirsitz, Posen.
Civil reg. office was in Seehof.
It had its own: Catholic church and a mill.

Wissek, city of 1500 residents, Kreis Wirsitz, Posen.
It had its own: Civil reg. office, Protestant and Catholic churches,
waterworks, bank, livestock markets, machinefactory, dairy, mill, sawmill
and brickworks.

Czaycze, noble's estate of 297 residents, Kreis Wirsitz, Posen.
Civil reg. office was in Wissek.
It had its own: brewery and brickworks.

As you are probably aware, Czaycze was the estate on the NE outskirts of
Heinrichsfelde, which was about one village NE of Wissek and Gr. Wissek.
The estate of Czaycze appears to have been a fairly large rectangular
grouping of about 8 buildings.
