Notizen zu dieser Person
David Diehl, a citizen of prominence and influence in Colerain township, is widely and favorably known throughout Bedford County, which he served three consecutive years as Sheriff. He was born inColerain, Pa., April 13, 1825, a son of John and Mary (Koontz) Diehl. He is a descendant in the fourth
generation of Samuel Diehl, who removed from Loudoun County, Virginia, to Friend's Cove, Pa., in 1784, and became the founder of the Diehl family of this locality. Further ancestral history may be found on another page of this volume, in connection with the sketch of Henry P. Diehl, a kinsman of David Diehl.
John Diehl, a lifelong resident of Colerain township, died here on May 10, 1870. He was identified with the agricultural interests of this community as a prosperous farmer,and assisted in its educational progress while serving as a School Director. In his early years he was a Whig in politics, and from the
formation of the Republican party became one of its strongest supporters. His wife's maiden name was Mary Koontz. She bore him several children of whom the following survive: Levi H., of Illinois; David, the special subject of this brief sketch; John S., ofMann's Choice, Pa.; Mrs. Susan Exline, of Mercer
County, Ohio; Mary, wife of Jacob Hareclerode, of Lafayette County, Missouri; and Samuel J., of Van Wert County, Ohio. David Diehl received hismental equipment for life's battle in the common schools of Colerain, and on the parental homestead was drilled in the many branches of agriculture to which he has devoted the better part of his life. One of the leading farmers of Colerain and a man of strong personality, he has wielded a good influence in the community, where his qualities are well understood and appreciated. He has been electedto various important positions of public trust, having served as Road Supervisor one term, as School Director one term, and as Justice of the Peace eight years. In the fall of 1884, Mr. Diehl, a strong Republican living in a Democratic district, was elected Sheriff of Bedford by a notable majority of two hundred and fifty votes, a fact that attests his popularity as a man and as a citizen. Goinginto office the first day of the following January, he removed to Bedford, Pa., where he
resided until the expiration of his official term, three years later. He was a prime mover in the organization of the Odd Fellows Lodge at Rainsburg, of which he is a charter member; and he also belongs to the Bedford Camp, No. 114. He united with the Reformed church a long time ago, and has since served as Deacon and Elder, the latter being an office that he now holds. On December 6, 1850, Mr. Diehl married Miss Eva A. Ritchey, a daughter of the late John R. Ritchey, of Bedford, Pa. She died August24, 1892, leaving five children, namely: John R.; Matthew I.; Olive C., wife of Charles E. Stuckey;
Elizabeth, wife of Frederick Smith; and U. Grant. Two other children were born of the union ofMr. and Mrs. Diehl; namely, Samuel H., and Susan, both of whom have passed to the life beyond.

He was a consistent member of the Reformed Church, serving a long number of years in the consistory, either as an elder or deacon. He was a charter member of the Rainsburg Lodge, I.O.O.F., which he represented at the Grand Lodge several times. Healso was a member of the Encampment at Bedford.
