I searched for Pyritz and Pyrzyce on Google Maps. Pyritz is in present-day Poland and is now called Pyrzyce. (A lot of the former province of Prussia was returned to Poland after WWII.) Gottberg in the municipality of Märkisch Linden is NNW from Berlin. Pommern was a subdivision of Prussia, which was the largest of the German states/provinces in the 19th century.

Thank you!!

BTW: Gottberg means "God Mountain" or "God's Mountain". As that area is notoriously flat, this may be an example of 19th century German humour. Good luck.
