Samuel Diehl Genealogy
FORWARD (by N. Paul Bernhardt)
This Genealogy of the descendants of samule Diehl was first conceived by Nevin Wilson of Berlin,
Pennsylvania. Early in 1955, it was by his enthusiastic efforts that a voluntary committee was formed for
collecting information for a new edition of the DIEHL Genealogy.
The committee included: Mr. Levi Nevin Wilson, Chairman Mrs. Bessie Discavage, Puritan, PA. Mrs.
Luther Beegle, R.D.#4, Bedford, PA Mr. Clayton C. Diehl, Oberlin, Kansas (deceased) Mrs. Roy Diehl,
R.D.#4, Bedford, PA Mrs. Ada Reichard, Penn Street, Bedford, PA (deceased) Mrs. Esta Woy, Everett,
PA Mr. B. Frank Whetstone, Everett, PA Mrs. Ruth K. Bernhardt, R.D.#1, Duncansville, PA (deceased)
Miss Blanche Koontz (deceased)
Miss Blanche Koontz was enlisted by Mrs. Bernhardt, as a co-worker. The committee diligently pursued
the task of collecting information for this edition of the Diehl Genealogy until it was completed about
1959. The time and cost incurred by the individual committee members were quite considerable, for
which no reimbursement was made. The members gladlyu contributed their time, cost, and efforts,
wholeheartedly and generously, and each one of them deserves only the highest praise and
commendation for their diligent and faithful efforts.
After the task of collecting information was completed, the problem of publication confronted the
committee. The vast amount of information collected was so much more than anticipated it seemed that
the cost of publishing it would be prohibitive. At the same time Mr. Wilson, because of advanced age,
found it necessary to resign from the committee. Mrs. Bessie Discavage assumed chairmanship of the
committee, but no positive action was taken twoard publishing the Genealogy until 1969. At this time, a
descendant, James Diehl of Plains, Montana, volunteered to have the task done. Before the material was
arranged for printing, Mr. Diehl suffered a fatal heart attack.
Some difficulty was encountered in connection with the return of the material from Montana; and after
the elapse of several years my wife, Mrs. Ruth K. Bernhardt, a member of the committee, became
concerned that the information collected would be lost, so about 1971, she and I began to make plans for
salvaging the project. Mrs. Bernhardt did not live to see any plan put in operation. After her death in
January, 1973, I decided that because of her great interest and dedication to this Genealogy I would
attempt to promote the publication. Since death had twice delayed the work, it was thought wise to
provide for continuation of the work in case of another call by death. Accordingly, along with Ray S.
Koontz of McConnellsburg, Pennsylvania, and S. Grace Diehl of Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania, a
committee of three was formed to publish and distribute the Genealogy.

information in the proper manner, sought help and found that Mr. Floyd G. Hoenstine of Hollidaysburg,
Pennsylvania, was an experienced genealogist. he agreed to have the information properly arranged and
typed, ready for publication. This work was started July 19, 1973, by Mrs. Sylvia Emerson, a typist,
experienced in genealogical data. At the time it was estimated the work would require approximately six
months, but it has continuted twenty-seven months.
Two Diehl Genealogies have been published prior to this one. one published in 1891 contained
approximately 2,500 names; the other, in 1915 contained approximately 4,050 names, while this one
lists approximately 14,600 names. Because of the large number of names in this volume, the many
interesting sketches, reminiscense and photographs that were planned, had to be omitted for lack of
space.
It was stated in the previous Genealogies that Samuel Diehl was born in Loudoun County, Virginia,
about 1740 and that according to family tradition, he served as a soldier in the Revolutionary War. The
Publishing Committee felt that while the typing and arranging of the information was in progresss, an
effort should be made to verify the date of birth, name of father, war service, and the name of his wife,
known heretofore only as Miss Ritchey.
Information was uncovered from the records in the Loudoun County, Virginia, Courthouse that verified
the date of birth as 1740. (A Tax List for 1761 shows Samuel Teal (Diehl) first taxable in that year,
indicating he was then 21 years of age.) The Deed Record in the same Courthouse, "1762, vol. C. Index"
indicated that Joseph Teal (Diehl) coveyed property to Piter and Samuel Tiel (Diehl) assessed for taxes
on property "to be charged to their father, Joseph Teal" (Diehl). This indicates that Samuel's father was
Joseph Diehl. It is possible that Joseph emigrated from Germany though his name was not found
amoung those arriving at Phildelphia. The record further shows that Samuel had a brother, Peter, and
probably other brothers and sisters. A Copy of the Records of the New Jerusalem Lutheran Church, near
Lovettsville, Loudoun County, Virginia, for 1785 shows that Daniel Diehl, a son of Samuel and
Margreth (Margaretha, now Margaret) born February 17, 1785, was baptized April 13, 1785. Thus
indiciating that his wife's name was Margaretha Ritchey and that though he may have purchased a
homestead in Friends Cove, Bedford County, Pennsylvania, in 1784, the establishment of his residence
there must have been in 1785. In further support of Miss Ritchey's given name, it is noted that in 1788
Samuel Diehl and Margaret Diehl applied for and received patents for land in Coleraine Township,
Bedford County, Pennsylvania.
With respect to Samuel Diehl's service in the Revolutionary War, no record of any kind was found to
establish his service or nonservice in the Revolutionary War. A thorough search was made of all known
records, without result, but it may be that someone may yet find some reference to his war service in
official or private correspondence of the Revolutionary War days.
The records of the Revolutionary War personnel are very incomplete, and complicated by the fact that
the colonists were emigrants from a number of different nations, with different languages and most of
them with little or no formal education. The name DIEHL may have been lost in the way it was spelled
at the time. In our research the following spellings have been found: Teal, Teel, Teele, Theal, Thiel,

Not only would this Genealogy have been impossible without the earnest, dedicated work of the
information committee, but we also owe a depbt of gratitude to Mr. Hoenstine and Mrs. Emerson for
their help and faithfulness, which is hereby gratefully acknowledged. Information from the 1891 and
1915 Diehl Genealogies is also gratefully acknowledged.
The Publishing Committee regrets that the copies of this Genealogy appear to be costly, and wish to
assure the reader that no compensation for their time or effort is provided for or expected. The cost of
the Genealogy represents only the actual monetary outlay for its publication.
Our compensation is the satisfaction of seeing the work finally completed, and in your hands.
No doubt there are errors, and we trust you will understand that none were intentional; and we hope you
will correct any errors you may find in your copy of the book and advise S. Grace Diehl, Secretary of
the Publishing Committee, so that corrections may be made for future record.

Samuel Diehl was born in 1740 and resided in Loudon County, VA where most of his children were
born, quite a number of years. His wife was a Miss Ritchey. He did service for the Colonies as a soldier
in the Revolutionary War. In 1784 he and his family, his mother-in-law, Mrs. Ritchey and Philip Diehl
and George Diehl came up into Bedford County, PA and settled in Friend's Cove. Samuel and Philip
soon became owners of good sized farms. George operated a distillery several years. Eventually the
latter two disappeared from the county, leaving no known record of their destiny or descendants. Samuel
stuck to the soil, as have thousands of his industrious progeny in generations since. He died on this old
home farm near Ott's Mills, in 1828, and is buried in the old grave yard on the Bowser Farm, now
owned by William Beegle.

War in the 8th Ohio Calvary.
Joshua Diehl of Friend's Cove, PA in his youth developed a remarkable ability to
do more than one thing, and do it well. He first learned to be a saddle and harness
maker under the instruction of his brother-in-law, John Dittmar, and soon became
an adept workman. He then followed daguerreotyping a couple of years at the time
when photography was just making its appearance. In the lat 1850s he went to
western Ohio and engaged in the nursery business, which he followed until the
breaking out of the Civil Rebellion. On September 14, 1861, he enlisted in the 8th
Ohio Cavalary, Troop 4, and on account of his skill as a saddler, was elected to the

Aaron Diehl taught school two terms, served an apprenticeship at carpentreing, made spledid household
furniture much of which is sought as heirlooms and later added gunsmithing before the breech-loader
was invented and photography when the 'tintype' first appeared. Later he was a jeweler and optician to
the end of his active life. Few men could so so many things and do them well. Never an aspirant for
public office, he did much clerical writing of deeds and documents for his neighbors, in the days before
printed forms were in use. He was an Elder in Mount Hope Reformed Church, and a life long Democrat,
and spent all of his useful life in the Blue Knob country, Blair County, PA.
Aaron Diehl and his wife were both natives of Greenfield Township and he died here in February, 1910.
In early life he learned carpentering and cabinet making, and later followed same in connection with

Oct 1894.1 Rev. Henry Franklin Dittmar was born at Loysburg, Pennsylvania. His
earlier education was obtained in the public schools of his native town. He
graduated from Franklin and Marshall College, at Lancaster, Pennsylvania in June

licensed to the Gospel Ministry by Juniata Classis, he was ordained pastor of the

Hoffmeier, S.L. Whitmore, S.S. Miller and H.W. Hoffmeier, June 22, 1890. He was
a good preacher and an excellent pastor. Above all, he was a true friend, frank and
fearless yet tender and kind. He never hesitated to tell one of his faults as he saw
them. He was, however, equally careful to speak of one's excellencies. In
consequence he secured and held in an unusual degree the devotion of members
and friends. He married Maud Waters of Baltimore, Maryland, October 24, 1894,
to whom one daughter was born, Mary Nevin. He was a member of the Order of
American Mechanics, of Jefferson, and of Lynch Lodge of Masons, at Frederick,

Cemetery, among the people he loved so well and among whom he labored so
faithfully for fifteen years. At the grave the Masonic rites were used, under the
direction of Senator Jacob Rohrbach and Rev. J.R. Lewis, and just as the sun was
setting the benediction was announced and he was left there with his father, God, to
await the resurrection.

the Old Ritchey farm, which was his home two years. In 1865, he sold this (known as the Stone House
property) and took his family west, taking possession of a farm which afterwards grew to a half section,
near Summum, Illinois. Here he helped build the first church in that community, under the pastorate of
Rev. George Weber. He was a life-long member of the Reformed Church; a liberal supporter of her
institutions, and a Sunday school worker for three-quarters of a century. As a delegate he represented the

missed the funeral. The date of 1944 was listed in his wife's obit in error. The last
of their children, Kenneth Vincent died last month, 22 Mar 2002. He had been a
resident of Portage, Cambria Co. since 1916 when his parents moved from the farm
in Blue Knob & opened a "General Mercantile Business" on Main Street. He was
very well known in the area as a skilled gunsmith & did fine detailing on both gun

Greenfield Twp., Blair Co., PA.23 Drowned when the transport Otoronto was sent to
the bottom of the sea, when rammed by a German submarine, Oct., 9, 1918, as the
steamer neared the English Channel, his body being subsequently picked up when
washed ashore on the coast of Scotland and temporarily interred there, disinterred
and shipped home and buried in the family plot in Mt. Hope Reformed cemetery,
Juniata township, Blair County yesterday forenoon, is the story in brief of the
supreme sacrifice of Francis Ritchey, son of Harvey Ritchey, of Blue Knob.
Young Ritchey, 20 years of age, heard the call to color when war was first declared
on Germany by the United States, and coming to this city, enlisted as a volunteer in
the National army, being sent to Columbus, Ohio, barracks for training. He
qualified and was assigned to go to France with one of the first transports, and one
of the very few that was interrupted by the Germans.
The transport having met with disaster, Ritchey was one of those to go down with
the ship. Articles in his pockets and his identification tag disclosed his identity, and
the body was prepared for burial and interred in Scotland, near where the body was
picked up by fishermen, and turned over to the authorities.

When hostilities ceased, and the conveyance of the soldier dead began, the father
requested the return of his son's body. Along with others, it arrived in New York on
August 15. It was held there for some time, and on Wednesday, August 25 was
shipped to Portage, where Undertaker John Tickerhoof received the body, keeping
it in his morgue until yesterday morning, when it was taken to the Mt. Hope
Reformed church, in Juniata township, near his old home.
The Rev. Calvin Skyles, pastor of the church, officiated. He spoke of the sacrifice,
following an enlistment for his country, and implored his hearers to enlist for Christ
and the church. The pall bearers were six ex-service men, two of whom were
brothers of the deceased, all wearing army uniforms. There was no military service
at the grave, no arrangements having been made by any of the Veteran posts for
attendance.
