I do not have any records for you of Wilke in 1839.  However the name  does 
appear in the "Kirchspiel Lohne"  book by Freiderich Steinkamp.   Under the 
entry "zusammenfassung  Wilcke /Wilcking/Wilke/Wilking" there are  about thirty 
names.  The latest is Maria Elizabeth Wilke born in  1758.
 
The name Wilkinck/Wilking/  appears 33 times among the baptisms of St  Marien 
Church in Oythe between 1650 and 1745,
 
The following entries are in Dr Pagenstert's book, "Bauernhöf im amte  
Vechta" - Wilke (Einen), Wilke (Hogenbögen), Wilke (Lohne), Wilke (Runnenbaum),  
Wilke (Hinnenkamp), Wilke Macke, Wilke Flöttel, and Wilke  (Kokenwahlde).  Each 
gives a history of the farm.
 
If you contact me off-line, I can send you a jpg image of any of the  
Pagenster's entires if you desire.

Hello,
I am researching the Wilke family that might be from Vetcha  or  Goldenstedt
My great grandfather was Johann Heinrich Wilke born in  1839
He married Anna Maria Zehusen born in 1841
They had 5  children:
Henrich born in 1866
August born in 1868 - 
Johanna born in  1875
Marie born in 1879 died in Germany before 1891
Franz born in 1885  in Goldenstedt
They might have had other children unknown to us.
The  family came to the USA in 1892 except for August who came in   1896.
Any information about this family would be appreciated especially  the  
parents of
Johann Heinrich Wilke if found.
Thank  you
Larry
