Hello Lynelle,

    Schloctern is in the Melle area. Hoyel is there as well. I cannot find
Schloctern in my Autoatlas of Germany, probably because it is too small.
You may want to look at this website and it will list the towns in the
Melle district:

There are two Schlochterns listed there for some reason--one with
Sondermühlen and the other Wellingholzhsn.

Hi Lynelle.

Landkreis Melle

At the time, your relatives came over it was belonging to:
Zugeh�rigkeit staatlich: Preu�en, Provinz Hannover, Regierungsbezirk

Today it would read as: Schlochtern, Land Osnabrueck, Niedersachsen

Parishes for Schlochtern have been:

Good luck.

Considering of the umlaut-problems, I thought of SCHL�CHTERN and SCHLUCHTERN,
both a bit more south of Lower-Saxony-area, but looking on the spread of
your reserached names, your KEHLENBRINK are spread mostly in the area of B�NDE
and there are still only three PAPENBAUM, all of them are in MELLE. So the place
SCHlochtern should be probably in this region MELLE / B�NDE. One should keep the
both other named in mind. Greetings Hans Peter Albers
