I have been working on tracing the Biele family as far back as possible and have a few new leads. The tree I have been able to establish to date is as follows (starting with my grandfather)
Charles Edward Biele (1905 - 1983) - born in New York City, New York, USA
Carl Frederick Biele (1878 - 1964) - born in New York City, New York, USA
Friedrich Carl (Charles Frederick) Biele (1854 - 1930) - born in Barmen, Germany
Caspar Biele (1823 - 1875) - born in Hovestadt, Germany
August Clemens Biele (1773 - 1833) - born in Hovestadt, Germany
Joannes Fridericus (Frederick) Biele - (1730 - 1813) - born in Hovestadt, Germany
Joannes Matthias Biele (In De Bile)
In the later records, the last name changes at times between "In De Bile", "In De Biele" and "In Der Bile". This may be from the way they were written in the original church records or how they were later transcribed by others.
All of the family members before Joannes Matthias have church or civil records establishing their birth dates and places. The records for those listed as being born in Hovestadt include churches in Oestinghausen and Erwitte. Joannes Matthias is recorded in church records for the christening of his children and his marriage. In the "Haus Biele" publication, Joannes is listed as being born around 1700 and died around 1760 but it does not state where those dates come from.
The record I found that might be connected is one for "Joannes Matthias In Der Bile" christen on 04 Nov 1688, at the Catholic church in Rheine. His father is listed as "Melchioris In Der Bile".
There are several records that might be connected in Rheine. Note that sometimes the mother is listed and sometimes only the father. In summary, they are:
Matthias In De Biele, christened 02 Apr 1682, father Melchioris In De Biele, no mother listed, location Rheine
Christophorus Matthias In De Biele, christened 10 Apr 1684, father Melchioris In De Biele, no mother listed, location Rheine
Gertrudis In De Bile, christened 30 Jul 1687, father Melchioris In De Bile, no mother listed, location Rheine
Joannes Matthias In Der Bile, 04 Nov 1688, father Melchioris In Der Bile, no mother listed, location Rheine
Maria In De Bile, christened 13 Jul 1690, father Melchioris In De Bile, no mother listed, location Rheine
Henricus Melchior In De Biele, 20 Feb 1706, father Melchioris In De Biele, mother Annae Christinae Probsting, location Rheine
Clara In De Bile, christened 18 Oct 1713, father Melchioris In De Biele, mother Christinae Probsting, location Rheine
There are also four marriages in Rheine of interest, though I am not sure how they connect to those listed above:
20 Apr 1681 marriage of Melchior Cornelius In De Biele to Margaretha Joanna Meyer in Rheine
29 Nov 1681 marriage of Matthias In De Biele to Catharina Cordes in Rheine
01 Oct 1702 marriage of Melchior In De Bile to Maria Gertrudt Schiger in Rheine
11 Nov 1708 Margaretha Catharina In De Biele to Johan Herman Kettendors in Rheine
There are also two older records that may or may not be connected to the others.
6 Jan 1629 christening of Mari In Der Bile, father Euert In Der Bile in Rheine
25 Dec 1636 christening of Everhardus In Der Bile, father Mattia In Der Bile in Rheine
