Kartenmeister yields 2 possible results that fit your interpretation of 
the spelling:

Wueste Kehle in Trebnitz, Silesia, today known as Kalowice, Poland.

Weisskehle in Rawitsch, Posen

You can follow up with parish names etc at http://www.kartenmeister.com

There could of course be other possibilities if the interpretation is 
incorrect.  You can do a search for other starting letters by using a 
wild card in the form   [ W*kehle ]
