Ritter's Lexikon (1883) lists 4 places called Hetzdorf.
The BGN gazetteer: Germany, Soviet Zone and E. Berlin>
lists 5 populated places called Hetzdorf. At least one of
them is in East Prussia, in the vicinity of Potsdam or
Prenzlau Colony--but I think you will need to get some
additional information from your patron before you can
proceed.
