The name was spelt: Gehlen, Gehle, Göhle, and Goehle, plus other variations in the Geman records - pronounced Goe la.

From 1725 to 1779 the parish records in Herrnsheim listed not only the name of the witnesses at baptisms but frequently included other information about the witnesses. For instance it may list the father as well as the witness - e.g. Joanne Nestpler son of Stephen Nestple of Frankenthal or the occupation of the witness or his (or her) father. In many cases this is the only indication of the occupations of some people. Consequently, I have tried to check all of the baptisms in this period to see what additional information can be gleaned on the families I am interested in. Interestingly, the Goehles were rarely witnesses - even for other Goehle baptisms.

   Note: I assume that the witness, Jacob Goehle, was the father of Mathias as it was very common that if the father was still alive he was a witness to the marriage of his child.

   Birth: Circa 1770 based on death record. I rechecked the records and did not find a baptism for him. Johann Goehle was a witness to George's marriage in 1800.

   Notes

   • George son of Jacob Goehle and Francisca Knoll 1773.
   • Johann Goehle born 1752 son of Peter, married in 1779, too late to be the father of this George.
   • The only other Goehle in the parish in this time frame was Adam, a brother of both Jacob and Johann. He did not marry until 1783

   Marriage: George Goehle married virigini Margaretha Bardeng (in) witnesses Joanne Gehle and Joanne Dachmann, Jan 7, 1800

   Death George Goehle: George Goehle widow of Margarethe nata Bardong age 71 12-15 Sept 1841 (c 1770)

9. George Goehle (c 1797-1872) and Gertrude Goertz

   Birth: 1797 based on his age at death. No later than 1801 based on an age of 20 years at his marriage in 1821. Possible a brother of Carl Franz Goehle as Carl Franz Goehel was witness at George's marriage. George would have been born too early to be the son of Carl Franz Goehle. Carl Franz was only 32 in 1821.

   Notes: Three Goehle brothers, Jacob, Johann and Adam were having children in Herrnsheim between 1773 and 1810.

   • Jacob had a son George in 1773
   • There is no record of a son George born to Johann. However, Johann did have a son, Carl Franz. Carl Franz was a witness at the marriage of Geroge Goehle
   • Adam Goehle had a son George who died in 1797.
   • Since this George Goehle named at least three children Adam it is highly likley that he was the son of Adam

General Notes:

• Herrnsheim (Herrn's heim), meaning Gentleman's Home, was a Catholic village just north of the city of Worms. The "Gentleman's Home" was the "schloss" (palace or castle) of the von Dahlberg (Dalberg) family.
• The church records were recorded in Latin and the civil records were recorded in German.
• The church records were recorded in the Catholic Parish Church of St Peter in Herrnsheim. The records for Herrnsheim were (more or less) written in Latin. The spelling of the names varied depending, I think, on the whim or the person recording the event. "in" was added to most female surnames, but not all. Endings for male names varied with "us", "i", "o" being most common. However, in the case of Jo(h)ann it sometimes ended with "e". Most female names ended with "a".
• Unfortunately, many cemeteries in Germany removed the old graves and grave markers (if they existed) to make room for new burials. Consequently there are not many old grave markers in modern cemeteries. The cemeteries that we have visited are lovingly maintained with beautiful flowers. Herrnsheim's cemetery was no exception. We did not find any Göhle graves. There were a few new graves for Harbauers and the Arnold and Bardong names were very common. The only older tombstones were for former burgermeisters. There were also a few older markers for fallen soldiers - including one for Bardong and one for Harbauer.
• There were no listings for Göhle in the current Worm's phone book. There were several listings for Harbauer.
