Translation Request Schonfeld Birth

Dabney Denbrock Corbi

Kind friends, I would be grateful if someone could translate the first birth record in 1706 Rutenberg for Schonfeld. I don't care about the sponsors, just names of the mother and child and date of birth. Thank you in advance!

For the previous "Schonfeld" marriage record, it was very difficult to read the bride's surname due to ink bleeding. In this record it is more clearly readable and I see it as "Sponholten". But I hope others will also be able to add in what they see.

I see the record as:

Peter Sponholten, thresher, and Cathar(ina) Magdalena Dietricht? let their daughter Maria be baptised on the 8th day of March (1706).

It doesn't give her date of birth.

Edit to add: The surname might also be "Sponholtz(en) with the "en" being a grammatical ending. I did not at first include the "z" because I thought it part of the descending squiggle used to represent the "en" ending and because I saw no evidence of the "z" in the marriage record. However, the death record you just posted might have the "z", it is difficult for me to read.

Thank you very much, Greg. Like you, I also saw Sponholtz on Maria's death record. The marriage record looks more like Schonfeld to me. Either could be correct in reality. I appreciate your help! Thanks again, Dabney

I agree with @JohnsonGreg that the surname ends with -holtz. "Schonfeld" sounds rather un-German, it should be "Schönfeld" with an umlaut, but there are no dots here. See also

There is no Schonfeld or Sponholt as a last name, but Sponholz and Sponholtz exist.

Thanks Ulrich, I appreciate your input!

The interesting note is that when I checked Ancestry for records in Rutenberg for future generations of either name. I found a couple of dozen people named Schonfeld (with umlaut). There was not a single record for anyone named Sponholtz in Rutenberg. Of course they could have died out or moved away.
