Biography

Christian Albert Diem ('Chris')^[1][2] was born about 5 April 1858 in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania,^[3][4] to William Diem and Maria Moyers.^[5][6][7] According to his death certificate,^[7] he was born on 5 April 1860, and the stone on his grave reports his birth year as 1860.^[8] But the 1860 census claims he was 2, and his reported age in the other censuses and his marriage license application is consistent with that.^[4][5] Since the evidence that he was born in 1858 is earlier than the evidence he was born in 1860, and probably came from sources with more direct knowledge of his birth, he was probably born in 1858. But not certainly; the census enumerator could have reported his age in months without indicating that.

In 1860 and 1870, he was living with his family in Salisbury Township, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. ^[4] In 1870, he was attending school. ^[9]

He was probably married to Louisa Anna Hinkle on 19 July 1877, by Reverend D. W. Gerhard at the Reformed parsonage, in New Holland, Lancaster County. ^[10]

In 1880, Christian and Louisa were living in Caernarvon, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, with their son Osker, who was one year old. ^[11] Louisa also had a daughter, Della, in 1880; whether she is Christian's child is currently unknown. ^[12]

Louisa and Christian apparently separated, since both remarried. ^[5][13] No evidence has been found about the end of their marriage. ^[14]

He married Mary Jane Davis, on 27 November 1890, in Mifflintown, Juniata County, Pennsylvania. ^{[5] [15]} They had eight children:^[3]

Viola Mae Diem (1891-1945]]

Clarence Evan Diem (1894-1977)

Bertha Jane Diem (1896-1983)

Albert Christian Diem (1899-1961)

Mary Margaret Diem (1902-1967)

Mabel Elsie Diem (1906-1979)

Dorothy Ethel Diem (1908-2004)

Edith Marie Diem (1911-1994)

(See the research note below for the evidence that their reported daughter Catherine was actually their son Christian Albert Diem.)

In 1900, they were living on King Street, in Malvern Borough, Chester County, Pennsylvania, which they were renting. Christian was a carpenter, and had not been out of work in the last year. ^[16]

In 1903, he was living in Malvern, and was a contractor and builder. ^[6]

According to a family story, he had to stop being a contractor because he fell from a rooftop. He became a farmer instead. ^[17]

In 1910, they were living on Park Avenue in Lower Providence Township, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, which they were renting. Christian was a farmer, Viola was a bill clerk, and Clarence was a laborer on a home farm. ^[18]

He died on 11 May 1914, in Norristown, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. The cause of death was septic peritonitis due to perforation of intestines, with a jejunal ulcer contributing. According to a family story,^[17]

In 1914, he was working in the field when an ambulance or fire truck went by. The siren frightened a horse which knocked him down and trampled him. As a result, his appendics burst and he developed peritonitis and died.'On 15 May, he was buried in Schwenksville Cemetery, Schwenksville, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania.

On 15 May, he was buried in Keelys Church Cemetery (also known as Schwenksville Cemetery), Schwenksville, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. ^{[8] [19] [7] [20]}

Research Notes

other Christian Diems who did not marry Louisa Hinkle

At least one other Christian Diem of the right age lived in Salisbury Township. He was born on 25 December 1861, to Martin Diem and Catherine Fryberger. This Christian married Sallie Lowry on 6 February 1889; like Christian Albert Diem, he claimed he had never been married. ^[21] But his name is Christian Howard Diem, which does not match the newspaper marriage report. ^[22] And in 1880, he was still living with his parents. ^[23] He, then, clearly did not marry Louisa Hinkle.

In 1880, a third Christian Diem was living in Salisbury. He was 18 years old, and was a farm laborer, in Salisbury, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, with Isaac Buckwalter. ^[24] Mary Diem (born about 1863) was also living with them, and was presumably related to Christian. ^[25]

The Christian Diem living in Salisbury, with Elias Manner (farmer) and Adam Diem (laborer) in 1870 was probably actually Christiana Diem. ^{[26] [27]}

other Louisa Diems who did not marry Christian in 1877

Many Ancestry trees wrongly report Louisa as dying on 8 October 1885 in Clearfield County, but the Louisa who died then was married to Henry Diem, not Christian, and they were living together in Clearfield County by 1850, and were still there in 1880. ^{[28] [29] [30]}

And she's not the Louisa Diem who died on 6 February 1914, who was living in Philadelphia with her husband Christian F Diem in 1880, and was (reportedly) was born in Germany to Castor and Jaled Doell. ^{[31] [32] [33] [34] [35]}

they did not have a daughter Catherine

According to the Chester County birth records, a Catherine Diem was born in Malvern on 8 July 1899 to Christian and Mary Diem.^[36]

If Catherine existed, she would have to be the twin of Christian Albert Diem, who was born to Christian and Mary Jane on 8 July 1899.^[37] But the Chester County birth records include Catherine but not Christian. Further, the birth was recorded on 29 December 1899.^[36] Including one but not both twins is unlikely, and the more-than-five-month gap between the birth and its record makes memory errors very likely. Finally the 1900 census reports that Mary Jane had had four children (Viola, Clarence, Bertha, and Albert),^[16] and the 1910 census reports that she had had 7 children, all living (Viola, Clarence, Bertha, Albert, Margaret, Mabel Diem, and Dorothy).^[18]

The reported Catherine therefore is almost certainly actually Christian; no Catherine Diem existed.
