Place in Prussia - Alswede

In a christening record, the entry says "Jürgen Henrich Schepers in der riede "….
In the burial of the same child, the entry says "1719
71) 72) das 10th 8ber +
jurgen Schapers in der rÿen, z kinder als johan henr.alter 3 j. ü gerd herman alter 48 [woche or monate?] dd 2 rp"
For this family, identifying them as being from "in der riede" or "in der ryen" which seems to specify this family from the others.
In Meyers Gazateer, there is no reference for this "place". There is a "Diekriede" near Getmold and Lashorst, which would be a good way of identifying a family. Do you think that this is what was meant?
Thanks!
