Mein Deutsch ist sehr schlect so I will also write each sentence in English.

Mein Uhr-uhr Grossvater wohnte zirka 1810 in ein Rittergut in Exten. (My great-great-grandfather lived on a Rittergut - estate - in Exten around 1810.)
Ich fand ein photo des Rittergut an: www.schaumburg.de/data/form_schloesser.pdf s. 5. (I found a photo of the Rittergut at: www.schaumburg.de.data/form_schloesser.pdf on page 5.
Kann jemand sagt mir wo das Rittergut ist? (Can anyone tell me where the Rittergut is?)
Gibt es ein Strasse-addresse? (Is there a street address?)
Jetzt wohnen da die Familie von Meien, ich denke. (Now the von Meien family lives there, I think.)

Ich reise nach Oldenburg im Juli. (I am traveling to Oldenburg in July.)
Ich moechte diesem Rittergut zu sehen. (I would like to see this Rittergut.)
vielen Dank.

Dear Ms. Wardenburg,

I caught your e-mail about the Rittergut. The little
town of Exten lies between Minden and Hameln and the
former Rittergut is a prominent place to visit. Exten
has a very nice website which will probably give you
all the directions that you need.

By the way -why go to Oldenburg if you want to see
Exten?

Regards
Charlie

This has nothing to do with Oldenburg. Grafschaft Schaumburg as you
found out is elsewhere in Lower Saxony. The only Rittergut I can find
in Schaumburg is on page:

Your link doesn't work for me but this does:

Is that the place?

Here the address:

  Horst von Meien Phone (05751) 2912
  Rittergut Exten

  Germany

The street name is Rittergut Exten.

The village Exten is a part of the beautiful town Rinteln (www.rinteln.de) in the "Schaumburger-Land" on the Weser river. About 120 miles far away from Oldenburg. It is a beautifull area
