Karspel-Merzen

LS,
Wer kann mir sagen wo Karspel Merzen liegt?

Hello,
    Pardon my English. Merzen is southeast of Fürstenau on Road 218 leading
to Bramsche and farther on to Osnabrück. I cannot find Karspel anywhere -
not in my Deutschland Autoatlas nor mapquest.com. Perhaps it is not spelled
correctly.

Hallo Barbara:

On my 1831 Hanover map. I find Merzen on the road leading from Grafeld, SE
to Bergan>Bippen>Doten>Ancum>MERZEN. There is only one town [unreadable]
between Merzen and Bramsche. It is only about two miles [British] northwest
of Bramsche. It could be Karspel, but. . .?

Hope others can help. Good hunting

That's just Dutch for the German Kirchspiel or parish.
