Greg,
yes, unfortunately www.kartenmeister.com is temporarily down and thus 
showing us how we depend on it...
Unfortunately too, there were lots of Neuhof villages in West Prussia
and the word "Gut" (estate) doesn't indicate there was no village around
it. So you will have to scan all village events for your names. Under
www.progenealogists.com/germany/ewpruss/pru-n.htm you will find the
former Neuhof villages in Westpreussen for further research. The columns
mean:
Village, Province (WP = Westpreussen), district (sorry, I forgot), 
protestant parish, catholic
parish, CRO.

Good luck,
