DORNBACH AND SPIESS: There is an expression "Gold is where you find it," and sometimes precious bits of genealogical information prove to be a bonanza found in a strange place. Who would expect to find a baptism certificate in a art display at a college such as Franklin Marshall in Lancaster, Pa.? Mr. Walter Sonen was searching court records of Berks and Schuylkill counties, Pa. for any record of our Pa. Dutch ancestors Turnbaugh or Dornbach. We especially hoped to find the maiden name of Rebecca wife of William or of Elizabeth Catherine wife of Matthias. He found other information but was disappointed in his efforts to identify these two, our grandmothers. One evening Mr. Sonen attended an art showing at the college. He was surprised to see a collection of frakturs on display for their art value. He was more surprised to see that one of these was of Anna Maria, born in Europe, daughter of the honorable Matthias Dornbach and his wife Elizabeth Catherine Spiess. Here for the first time was found the surname of William Dornbach's mother Elizabeth Catherine. Truly a bonanza in tracing our Dornbach family and in adding Spiess to our family lines. The manuscript reads, "Anna Maria Dornbach first saw the light of this world in the year of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ: 1742, the 14th of September, in Europe; her father is the respectable Mathias Dornbach and Her mother Elisabeth, born Spiesin. On this date the above mentioned daughter was born to her and brought to baptism immediately and in her adolescence she was accepted and that was still in Europe, by a Protestant preacher and the name Anna Maria was given to her."
