Werner, 
Thanks for the info., yes it does help and makes sense.  The newspaper the
obituary came from is in an area with several low German speaking settlers. 

Thanks again and have a great day!

Lisa Niemeyer

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
