General Notes: Husband - John A. Diehl
He was born on a farm, and raised in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. He was educated in the public schools and at Pennsylvania College, Gettysburg. At the age of seventeen, he moved to Franklin County, with his parents, and in 1868 began the grain business at Marion, and in 1873 at Richmond. In 1890 he purchased the interest of Samuel M. Linn, in the firm of Linn & Coyle, grain and coal dealers in Chambersburg, and became a member of the firm of Coyle & Diehl, who had elevators at Chambersburg, Fayetteville, Marion, Greencastle and Richmond; and he also had a number of other interests in different parts of the country, being very successful in business. In politics he was a life long Democrat - the Diehl family had been Democratic since the days of Thomas Jefferson, but he never aspired to any political office. He was a member and elder of the Reformed Church at Marion.
