'''AnthonyAntonio Dominic Ubach''' (1835–1907) was a Spanish [[Roman Catholic]] [[priest (Catholic Church)|priest]] and advocate for the education of [[Indigenous peoples of the Americas|Native American]]s in [[San Diego, California]] during the late 19th century. This was organised through the practice of [[American Indian boarding schools|American Boarding Schools for Indigenous people]] which were later described by some critics as a way to strip them of their spiritual and cultural identities and assimilate them into white American civilisation.
 
Ubach, a native of Catalonia, in Spain, was the first priest appointed to serve [[Mission San Diego de Alcalá]] after California's [[annexation]] by the United States. In 1862, President [[Abraham Lincoln|Lincoln]] had signed an order returning the mission lands to the Catholic Church. Presumably appointed by [[Bishop]] [[Thaddeus Amat]]—then the Bishop of the Diocese of Monterey-Los Angeles—Ubach arrived in 1866 to find that the mission had been used by the U.S. military for nearly twenty years, and was in a total state of disrepair.
