DIEHL

At that time Nicholas Diehl was the largest landowner in the township, owned by far the largest number of horses and was the only person in the township having more than one servant.

The Graff who appears as joint owner with him was Christopher Graff (rated individually in addition to the above as owner of 66 acres, 2 horses, and three cattle), with whom he was concerned in some ventures of horse and cattle breed- ing. After this date the assessments rated by money values; in 1785 Nicholas Diehl was taxed £16 9s. 5d, the largest amount levied in the township. When Delaware county was erected September 26, 1789, from part of Chester county, Tinicum (as well as Ridley) township, became part of the new county.

In Nicholas Diehl's time, what is now Tinicum Island was a number of islands (a good portion of all of them partially submerged) separated by small channels have since been filled in and the flats reclaimed by banks being built. The island on which Nicholas Diehl's land was situated, or Tinicum Island, proper, was the lower or most southwesterly one, and was surrounded by Long Hook Creek, Darby Creek and the Delaware river. It was originally patented to the Swedish Governor, John Printz, November 6, 1643; and on it stood the celebrated Printz Hall, and the seat of the Swedish government on the Delaware, the site of which is now covered by the encroaching river.

After having several owners under the Swedish, Dutch and English govern- ments, Tinicum Island became, 1683-84, the property of Christopher Taylor, one of the principal statesmen under Penn's government, and from him went down in the Taylor and Elliott families, his descendants. In 1748 Christopher Elliott, whose son, Israel married Nicholas Diehl's daughter, Sarah, had 256 acres of the island. It appears from the will of Christopher Elliott, dated February 2, 1784, that his plantation on Tinicum Island was then occupied by Nicholas Diehl. John Hill Martin, in his "History of Chester," says, "Nicholas Diehl lived in the fine old country mansion, adjacent to the Lazaretto Station, on the west side of the old line of the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore Railroad," now the Ches- ter branch of the Philadelphia & Reading Railway.

Nicholas Diehl was an early and active participant in the War of the Revolu- tion. At the meeting of a number of the inhabitants of Chester county, held at the Courthouse in Chester, December 20, 1774, he was chosen a member of the Committee of Observation for that county, "to carry into execution the resolves of the late Continental Congress," and to take into consideration measures for the defense of their liberties, etc. This Committee of Observation had charge, later on, of the military affairs of the county. Nicholas Diehl was also a member of the sub-committee to drive off cattle to prevent them from falling into the hands of the enemy, in 1777, in case the seat of war approached the vicinity.

When the Associators of Chester county were organized, 1775, he joined the company formed in Ridley township, and in 1776 was Captain of Third Company, in Col. Hugh Lloyd's Third Battalion of Chester County Militia, with which he participated in the New Jersey and Long Island campaigns, and took part in the (to the Americans) disastrous battle of Long Island, August 27, 1776, having thirty-eight men under his command. When the militia was organized into battalions, without reference to township limits, 1777, he was commissioned Cap- tain of the Fifth Company, Third Battalion, Chester County Militia, commanded by Col. Caleb Davis. His commission, which as well as his sword, is now in

1726

DIEHL

possession of his great-great-grandson. Joseph Lybrand Stichter, of Reading, Pennsylvania, reads as follows :

"In the name and by the authority of the Freeman of the Commonwealth of Pennsyl- vania.

"The Supreme Executive Council of the said Commonwealth, to Nicholas Diehl, Esquire, We reposing especial Trust and Confidence in your Patriotism, Valour, Conduct and Fidel- ity, Do by these Presents, constitute and appoint you to be Captain of a Company of Foot, in the 3rd Battalion of Militia in the County of Chester. You are therefor, carefully and diligently to discharge the duty of Captain by doing and so performing all manner of things thereunto belonging. And we do strictly charge and require all officers and soldiers under your command to be obedient to your orders as Captain. And you are to observe and follow such orders and directions as you shall from time to time receive from the Supreme Execu- tive Council of the Commonwealth, or from your superior officers according to the Rules and Discipline of War and in pursuance of the Acts of Assembly of this State. This Com- mission to continue in force until per term, by the Laws of the State, shall, of course expire. "Given under the Lesser Seal of the Commonwealth at Philadelphia, the 14th day of May on the year of our Lord one thousand seven hundred and seventy-seven.

Attest, T. Matlack, Tho. Wharton, Junr.

Sec'y." Prest.

The battalion of Col. Caleb Davis was eventually reorganized into one of light horse. Nicholas Diehl was Captain of the First Company or Troop in this, then called the Sixth Battalion ( Volunteers). in 1780-81, and probably remained in the service until the end of the war. His sword was exhibited among the Revolu- tionary relics at the Atlanta (Georgia) Exposition, in 1895.

Shortly after his arrival in Philadelphia Nicholas Diehl joined in membership with St. Michael's and Zion Church, the earliest Lutheran congregation in the city. Most of the German arrivals at that time were Lutherans, and nearly all of the upper class of them, some of whom founded families of high position in Philadelphia, belonged to this church. After removing to Tinicum Island he con- tinued his membership at St. Michael's and Zion until 1806, when he joined with those members who wished to have the services in English, and they formed St. John's Evangelical Church, located on the north side of Race street, between Fifth and Sixth streets, Philadelphia.

Nicholas Diehl married February 21, 1763, in St. Michael's and Zion Church, Philadelphia, Anna Maria Meycrlin, born 1743, died June, 1827. In the record his name is spelled "Nicolaus Thiel." In all the early records of the German churches here the feminine termination "in" is usually added to the surnames of females, but in this case the name was undoubtedly Meyerlin, as the names of two male witnesses to this marriage are spelled in the same way. viz., Conrad Meyerlin, and G. C. Meyerlin : although the name is sometimes found spelled, "Meyerle," and "Meyerly."

The parentage of Anna Maria ( Meyerlin) Diehl is unknown to the present generation. She may possibly have been the daughter of Thomas and Margaretta Meyerle, whose twin sons, Johan Heinrich, "born first" and Peter Gotloeb, are recorded in the records of St. Michael's and Zion Church as being born and bap- tized August 19. 1753. Conrad Meyerlin, the witness to the marriage, was prob- ably a brother. One Conrad Meyerly took the oath of allegiance to the new government in Pennsylvania. June 26, 1777.

Nicholas Diehl died at his home in Tinicum township, Delaware county, Decem- ber, 1818; his burial on December 5, his age seventy-seven, and the cause of his death, palsey. are recorded on the register of St. John's Evangelical Lutheran Church, Philadelphia. His wife called "Mary" on the same register. died of

1727

DIEHL

apoplexy, aged eighty-four years and was buried June 12, 1827, in the vault of her son, Thomas Diehl at St. John's.

Nicholas Diehl's will was dated October 9, 1811, probated May 26, 1819, and registered in Delaware county Will Book, B, page 422, at Media. He left all his estate real and personal to his wife, Mary, for life, except his wearing apparel, which he left to his son, William. After his wife's death his sons. Adam, Nich- olas, Thomas, and William, and the heirs of his son, John, were to have all his real estate, including two tracts in Centre county, Pennsylvania, which had been taken up in the names of his sons, Adam and Nicholas, but to which the real right was in their father. To sons, Adam and Nicholas, $1,000 each ; to daughter, Mary, after the decease of his wife, $360 per annum, and after her death $6,000 to her children : to his granddaughter, Mary Ewing, $2,000, after the decease of the wife; the executors named were his sons, Adam, Nicholas, Thomas, John and William. He left $10,000 in cash, which would have made him considered quite wealthy in Pennsylvania, 1819, when we add to this the value of his real estate holdings.

Capt. Nicholas and Anna Maria Meyerlin (Diehl) had issuc:

After his removal he bought more land in Red Lion and St. George's Hundreds. and became one of the largest landowners in the county. His first residence in New Castle co. was in St. George's Hundred, above Port Penn; afterwards he removed to one of his tracts in Red Lion Hundred. A few years be- fore his death he sold most of his land in these localities and went to the city of Wil- mington, where he lived, at Eighth and Orange sts., until his death. His will, dated Jan. 9, 1836, while he still lived in Red Lion Hundred, proved July 29, 1842, devised his household furniture to his wife, Elizabeth, and divided the rest of his estate into nine parts, one to go to his wife, and one to each of his children, Adam, Rebecca, John, Jane, Martha, Sarah and Daniel, and one to the children of his son, William (William to be guardian of his own children), and named as executors, his wife, Elizabeth; son, Adam, and friend, Joseph Cleaver, of Port Penn.

His wife, Amelia Sophia Harrison, was a descendant of Thomas Lloyd, president of Provincial Council, Deputy Governor, Master of Rolls, etc., and of Isaac Norris, Provincial Councillor, etc. Mrs. Diehl's ancestry is very fully set out in Keith's "Provincial Councillors," and an excellent pedigree of her remote ancestors, the Lloyds of Dolobran, is given in Glenn's "Merion in the Welsh Tract." The list of her children given in Keith's "Provincial Councillors," is, however, somewhat faulty; correctly, they were as follows :

Amelia Harrison Diehl, of Phila., unm .;

Nicholas Diehl, of Norristown, unm .;

He was a well known and successful merchant, owner of considerable real estate in the city, and one of the prominent citizens of his day. He died November, 1863, and his remains are interred in Laurel Hill Cemetery.

Thomas Diehl married, about 1800, Helena, daughter of Leonard and Mar- garetta (Epplee) Jacoby, of Philadelphia. She died September 7, 1852, and was buried in her husband's vault at St. John's. Her father, Leonard Jacoby, was a subscriber to the Philadelphia Dancing Assembly.

CAPT. THOMAS JACOBY DIEIIL, son of William Jacoby and Marianne ( Fouchée ) Diehl, born in Philadelphia, January 21, 1830, was orphaned while a boy, lived thereafter with a wealthy aunt and uncle, and was educated at Samuel Crawford's School. Being fond of study he had his name entered at University of Pennsyl- vania, then in Ninth street, as a law student, in a class under the instruction of Prof. (afterwards Chief Justice) George Sharswood. He began the practice of law in the office of Francis Hopkinson. At the breaking out of the Civil War he enlisted in the Union Army and was commissioned Captain. When Col. David B. Birney, of Twenty-third Pennsylvania Regiment, was promoted to rank of Brigadier General, February 3, 1862, he made Capt. Thomas J. Diehl, an aide-de- camp on his staff. While stationed near Washington during a time of military inactivity, he was detailed as Advocate of Courts Martial in that city. He re- signed his commission February 18, 1863. The letter of Gen. Birney, acknowl- edging receipt of Capt Diehl's resignation, now in possession of the family, is as follows :

1730

DIEHL

Dear Diehl :

Hd. Qrs. Ist. Division 3d. Army Corps, Camp . Belle Air, Feb. 18, 1863,

I have yours of to-day tendering your resignation as Aide de Camp on my Staff. It is with great reluctance that I part with you, and I will always remember with pleasure the gallant service that you rendered at Fredericksburg and throughout the campaign.

Your refusal of a regular appointment in one of the regiments of the command has thrown upon you the entire expense of the campaign and you have in your willingness to meet this shown your Self-sacrificing patriotism.

However, Diehl, I am sorry to part with, and thank you heartily for your services and should you ever wish service on my staff either by regular appointment or as a volunteer, there will always be a vacancy and welcome.

Thos. J. Diehl, Esq.

Your Friend, D. B. Birney, Brig. Gen. Comd.

Another letter from Gen. Birney, written after Capt. Diehl had returned to his home in Philadelphia, under date of March 6, 1863, contains the following: "I accept your friendship with pleasure. Should you weary of the paths of peace let me know and I will have you assigned to one of my regiments and detailed. You can always resign. I would have influence sufficient to have it accepted. It always has been the case of a line officer."

A letter from Gen. Joseph Hooker has this to say of Capt. Thomas J. Diehl : "Your letter concerning Captain Diehl of the 8th inst. reached me yesterday. Whenever it is in my power to do anything for your friend I assure you it will afford me pleasure. All that you say in his behalf is richly merited as I know from personal observation. No one of his rank can display a better record."

Capt. Diehl's first military service had been as a member of the famous First City Troop of Philadelphia, with which he served until commissioned Captain in Gen. Birney's staff. His final retirement from the service was in consequence of an attack of typhoid fever contracted in camp, and letters of honorable dismissal from the army are among the prized possessions of his family.

Prior to entering the army Capt. Diehl had practiced law at 530 Walnut street, Philadelphia, and had built up fine practice, which he resumed on his return from the service, and continued until his death, 1887. At a meeting of the members of the Philadelphia Bar held on Saturday, October 22, 1887, to take action in reference to the death of Mr. Diehl, Benjamin Harris Brewster, Esq., expressed the regret of the legal profession of their sudden loss in his death, in the follow- ing words: "For many years, with others, I enjoyed his courteous and courtly friendship. There were many men of high rank and distinction in the profession, men like George Sharswood, who were happy in his acquaintance. Mr. Diehl had a strong and ardent nature which gave earnestness to his manner and a prompt way of applying himself to the necessities of a case. He was kind to those about him, always quick, sometimes sharp, in his manner, but never harsh, always courteous. I esteemed and loved him while living and honor him when dead." Judge Thayer also paid a high tribute to Capt. Diehl, saying in part, "I knew Mr. Diehl well through his long professional career and always rejoiced to call him my friend. There are one or two points in his character which strike me forcibly. During my long observation of him (and he has tried many many cases before me) he always displayed those qualities which should characterize a member of our profession. His assault on his adversary as we all know, was invariably vigorous, yet it was a knightly one. Mr. Diehl's death was sudden. It was as if one had so quietly withdrawn from the banquet that we did not observe his absence until our attention was rudely aroused by the announcement of his

1731

DIEHL

death." Many others spoke of the worth of Mr. Diehl; his law students openly paid their tribute of love and admiration for him, but his numberless gratuitous acts of kindness remain chronicled only in humble hearts that were gladdened by association with him.

Capt. Thomas J. Diehl was married, June 28, 1854, at St. Stephen's Protestant Episcopal Church, Philadelphia, by Rev. Dr. Ducachet, Margaretta Mayer, daugh- ter of Charles and Margaretta Sibylla (Mayer) Wetherill, of Philadelphia, and great-granddaughter of Samuel Wetherill. the Quaker patriot, who when cast out of Meeting for espousing the cause of the Revolution, founded the sect of the Free Quakers whose place of worship still stands at the southwest corner of Fifth and Arch streets; and a descendant of Christopher Wetherill, who emigrated from Yorkshire, England, to West Jersey, 1682, being one of the Council of Pro- prietors of that Province ( see Wetherill Family).

Capt. Thomas J. and Margaretta M. (Wetherill) Diehl had issue:

Margaretta M. Diehl, m., Feb. 8, 1882, Henry E. Wallace; MARY ELEANOR DIEHL, of whom presently; Charles W. Diehl. m. Ida E. Pfeiffer, and has a dau., Margaretta Diehl; William Diehl;
