General Notes: Husband - John H. Dietrich

---

He secured a good practical education even though the schools of his time were poor, and in later years participated in many local debates, in which he took great enjoyment. As the little farm of his father did not furnish enough work for two, he left home at the age of thirteen years, and worked for others, giving his wages to his parents until he had attained his majority. Learning the plasterer's trade, he worked at it for some time in Big Sugar and Nittany Valleys.
His wife was a daughter of a well-to-do farmer, from whom she inherited some property. By working at his trade, Mr. Dietrich was able to add to this until at the time of his death they had 144 acres of good land, later owned by their two sons, Lewis C. and Henry M.
He was an adherent of Democratic principles, and a member of the Reformed Church, to which his wife also belonged. After a lingering illness he died in the fall of 1887.
