Henry Welle at the top of the document. I cannot find this village and believe its spelling is incorrect. He was from Hannover as it indicates.

Hello @Patricia E. Meyer,
The link you provided did not take me to the actual record but I was able to find the record you were referring to because you provided the person's name.
In the record the place looks to be: Halesstellen or Halesstetten.
The closest similar place name I found in Hannover is: Hallstedt. Here is the link for this place from Meyers Gazetteer:

Yes, I did think the l’s could be German t’s. Thanks for your help. Maybe I will be able to find records! I have all the family names, including one born at sea before their arrival in New Orleans.
