William David Reinbeau (Rainbow, Reinbow, Reynbeau) born in Pittsburgh, Allegheny, Pennsylvania on 2
Seeking information on parents of William David Reinbeau(Rainbow, Reinbow...) born in Pittsburgh, Allegheny, Pennsylvania on 21 Jun 1856. William died 18 Apr 1934 in Collier, Allegheny, Pa. His death certificate shows his father as David Reinbeau of Pittsburgh, and his mother as Elizabeth Marsh also of Pittsburgh. My understanding, but not proven theory is that David (or Charles) left the family to join the California Gold Rush never to return. Eliza later married CAPT. David Douglas Barclay and cared for William from age 6.
Any information on parentage and where to locate this information would be appreciated. Email: ddaniel-727@hotmail.com

Do you have an online tree I can look at? It would help me wrap my brain around what documents you have so far and where else you could look.

Keep in mind that if Elizabeth remarried, she either had to get a divorce (whether that was filing a claim about abandonment) or have known that he died. So possible divorce records, a probate record or something along those lines to either show that Elizabeth "divorced" David or that he died.
