ALSBAUGH
When I started to amply my Waltz/Rainsberger information, I also focused on
the Alsbaugh line because there were 2 Alsbaugh showing in Carol's tree. The
more recent Alsbaugh, a Susannah, turned out to be married to a John R
Rainsberger, a brother of Carol's John Adam Rainsberger. Maurice Nevermann
provided the clue that caused me to correct the family line that I had erroneous
generated. Then, Bev Smith provided a tremendous file on the Alsbaugh family. It
contain a very large amount of family history, back to a Hans Thiess Ahlbach
born 1635 in Germany, and identified a large number of Alsbaughs. She also sent
pictures of cemetery lots etc. Carol’s family connection was not as strong as I
originally thought. There was only one Alsbaugh in her family tree, a Charity
Alsbaugh who married a Martin Reinhart Waltz. There is no question that this
couple was Carol’s family. The question is the complete name of the Waltz.
