Achelpohl - Borgholzhausen

Does anyone know where I can find records for Borgholzhausen? I am looking for the Evangelical Church. I thought it might be under Bielefeld but I don't see Borgholzhausen there.
 
Menu: Search / Suche

on the far left for Text enter: Borgholzhausen
next column to the right check: Digitally Available

press Button: Search

Next window: note search result for Borgholzhausen = 38 different church registers

Hope that helps,
Vera
 
BTW
There are a couple of useful HELP pages, regarding how to find church book i.e. see here

Is anyone on here on Ancestry? I thought German records were only available on this website but on Ancestry.com I found a collection called "Germany, Lutheran Baptisms, Marriages, and Burials, 1500-1971 Deutschland, ausgewählte evangelische Kirchenbücher 1500-1971". Would this be the same information as this website?

Also, when I search Achelpohl on the Ancestry site in that collection, it brings back results with the last name of "Eckelbarg" "Eckelbergen" and some others. Could this be the German spelling of Achelpohl? Does it usually change that much?
 
Ancestry's search algorithms consider phonetical adaptations, spelling mistakes and transciption mistakes. That's why you get some wild suggestions sometimes.

Achelpohl seems to be the original name though. By chance I found a Wilhelm Achelpohl by chance. He's on picture 162 in Beerdigungen (burials) 1820-1851 Band 14 Borgholzhausen.

Archion is probably the best online resource for protestant ancestors at the moment. Ancestry has some German records, familysearch has others. Catholic ancestors can be found at matricula-online.eu
 
First I beg your pardon for my horrible englisch.
You should know that there at least two Achelpohl/Achelpöhler familys in Borgholzhausen.
A record, written 1693, knows Dreis (Andrew) Achelpohl, a free man. The family lived in the house no. 20. There is litte to know about this family because almost all of the records of the village, later town Borgholzhausen before 1815 are destroyed. It is possible that they are craftsmen, esp. weavers or merchants.
And there is a second family in Casum. A litte village south of Borgholzholzhausen, now part of the town. The record of 1693 knows Johann Achelpohl. He is definitely a farmer at the farm no. 10. The members of this family are bounded by birth and law to the Lords of Palsterkamp. There is a record about the farm and other records about the family in the public record office (Staatsarchiv) in Osnabrück, Rep 350, Nr. 3731.
I hope that this is helpfull

Bernd
