Hello Lisa,
the low german speaking for Oldenburg was formerly like Olnborg, therefore ist could be Oldenburg.
But the name Kerk is in Oldenburg not present. There is a concentration in the Emsland/Lingen area, near the Netherland border.
The emigration book for Lingen county listed one name:
- Franz Heinrich Kerk, born 17.Dec.1859 in Espel, emigrated 1867

There is also listed some Kerckhoff/Kerkhoff.

I hope it helps,
Werner Honkomp
