history

The Ölken, belonging to the Gloerfeld peasantry of the parish of Halver , was first mentioned in a document in 1770, but the time of origin of the settlement is assumed to be between 1700 and 1750. Ölken is a split from Dahlerbrück. The local hammer mill , the Ölkes or Platten Hammer , was built around 1758, but was not entered in the official registers until 1804. The later part of Ölken on the other side (east) of the Volme initially belonged to the western farmers in the parish of Hülscheid .

Map of the Ölker Hammerwerke near Dahlerbrück around 1795. At that time the local area of ​​Ölkens east of the Volme did not yet exist.

As part of the municipal reorganization in the Grand Duchy of Berg 1808 new authorities were created, including the office belonging to communities Halver and Hülscheid in district Altena . The Volme was determined as the boundary of the communities in the area of ​​Ölken . As a result, the place, which had buildings on all sides of the Volme, was in the territory of the two municipalities mentioned above.

In 1818 four residents lived in the Hülscheid suburb. In 1838, as Kotten , the Hülscheider Ölken belonged to the Wester peasantry within the Halver mayor .

The Hülscheider suburb, categorized as Kotten according to the locality and distance table of the government district Arnsberg , had a residential house and three agricultural buildings at that time. At that time, six people lived in the village, all of whom were Protestant.

As early as 1844, however, the municipality of Hülscheid with the eastern suburb of Dahlerbrück was split off from the Halver office and assigned to the newly founded Lüdenscheid office and the place was now not only in two different municipalities, but also in two different offices . The municipality and estate district statistics of the province of Westphalia lists 1871 Ölken as Hülscheider Kotten with one house and six residents.

The place is recorded on the Prussian first recording from 1840 as Oelke . From the Prussian new admission of 1892, the place is recorded on the TK25 measuring table as Ölken .

The municipality encyclopedia for the province of Westphalia from 1887 gives a number of 25 inhabitants for the Hülscheider suburb who lived in two houses. In the 1870s / 80s the Hagen – Dieringhausen railway line was laid through the town .

In 1895 the place had three houses with 18 inhabitants, in 1905 four houses and 20 inhabitants are given. On October 1, 1912, the area belonging to Halver was spun off from the municipality of Halver and assigned to the newly founded municipality of Schalksmühle.

With effect from January 1, 1969, the municipalities of Hülscheid and Schalksmühle (at that time Amt Halver ) were merged into a new unitary municipality of Schalksmühle as part of a regional reform .
