Quinbach*
Adam Quinbach, a farmer, his wife Anna, and children (Elisabeth, age 8; Anna, age 6) arrived from Lübeck at the port of Oranienbaum on 10 August 1766 aboard a ship under the command of Skipper Nikolaus Peter Pink.
They settled in the Volga German colony of Paulskaya on 23 July 1767 and are recorded there on the 1767 census in Household No. 82.
The Oranienbaum passenger list records that Adam Quinbach came from the German region of Darmstadt while the 1767 census records that he came from the German village of Leniter [?].
There are no known surviving male lines of this family among the Volga German colonies.
