CHARLES N. DIEHL, who conducts a blacksmith business, wagon repair shop and deals in farm implements and engines, at the village of Colby, Sandusky County, is one of the enterprising and successful young businessmen of the place. He was born in Union County, Pennsylvania, February 9, 1876, and is a son of George W. and Rebecca (Kleckner) Diehl, farming people who still live in Union County. Charles N. Diehl remained on the home farm in Union County until he was eighteen years old, but, finding himself better adapted for another line of industry, became an apprentice to the blacksmith and horse-shoeing trade and worked at the same for four years in Pennsylvania. He was then twenty-two years old and came to Bellevue, Ohio, where he worked for four years more as a blacksmith. For nine months after this he was fireman on an engine on the Nickel Plate Railroad, following which, in September, 1902, he came to Colby and two and a half years later, built his shop. Mr. Diehl has equipped his place of business with modern improvements, putting in a gas engine, drills, saw, plane and a forge with the latest pattern of hand blower. The quality of his work and the promptness with which it is done, have brought his success. In July, 1898, Mr. Diehl was married in Center County, Pennsylvania, to Miss Rose Corman, a daughter of James Corman, a farmer who still lives in Center County. Mr. and Mrs. Diehl have one son, Corman James, a bright school boy of ten years. Mr. Diehl is a member of the German Aid Association, of Bellevue.
