Fraustadt is situated in Poland now. The today's name ist Wschowa. Under this name you will find it in some maps. Until 1945 it belonged to the former German province of "Nieder-Schlesien" (Lower Silesia). Fraustadt lies near Glogau (now Glogowa, Glugova or like this), about 30-40 kilometer distant I reckon. "Kreis" only means a little district with some villages around a town. The German inhabitants of Kreis Fraustadt were driven away from the Russians in 1945.A lot of them came to Kreis Glauchau in Sachsen (Saxonia).
