history

From the chart of the Duchy of Berg in 1789 by Carl Friedrich von Wiebeking , it can be seen that Oberbörsch was part of the Engelsdorf community in the parish of Kürten at that time . Under the French administration between 1806 and 1813, the Steinbach office was dissolved and Oberbörsch was politically assigned to the Mairie Kürten in the canton of Wipperfürth . In 1816 the Prussians converted the Mairie to the mayor's office in Kürten in the Wipperfürth district . In 1845 Oberbörsch had four buildings and 30 residents of Catholic faith. Oberbörsch belonged to the parish of Kürten.

In the list of the Kingdom of Prussia for the 1885 census, Oberbörsch was listed as the residential area of ​​the rural community of Kürten. At that time there were 12 houses with 56 inhabitants. In the first recording, the place is called Oberbusch . From the  Prussian new admission  from 1893-1896, the place is  regularly recorded as  Oberbörsch on  measuring table sheets  . In 1905 the place had ten houses with 53 inhabitants and belonged to the parish of Biesfeld .
