Kolb, Dielman (1691-1756)
Dielman Kolb, preacher of the Mennonite Church atSalford,Pennsylvania, b. 10 November 1691, at Wolfsheim,Palatinate,Germany, the youngest of six children, d. 28 December 1756 at Skippack, Pennsylvania. His father, Dielman Kolb, b. 1648 in Wolfsheim, d. 13 October 1712 inMannheim, Germany, was married to a daughter of Peter Schumacher (a Quaker), who was one of the first Palatines to settle inGermantownin 1685. The son, and also his older brother Peter (d. 1727), who was a preacher at Mannheim, took a warm interest in his brethren who had been banished fromSwitzerland, sheltered them, and in general did much for them. He continued his correspondence with theCommittee for Foreign Needsat Amsterdam after his arrival in America. In 1714 he married Elisabeth Schnebeli of Mannheim. On 21 March 1717 he immigrated to America with his family. They arrived inPhiladelphiaon 10 October 1717. From there Dielman Kolb went to Salford (inMontgomery County), where he bought about 500 acres of land. WithHeinrich Funckhe founded the Salford congregation (Mennonite Church) in 1738, and with him supervised the translation of theMartyrsâ Mirrorfrom Dutch into German 1745-1748. It was through his influence that his close friendChristopher DockâsSchulordnungwas written and later (1770) published. In the struggles and needs of a pioneer Mennonite settlement his work and influence were of lasting benefit to the brotherhood. His only child Elizabeth was married to Andrew Ziegler (1707-1797), preacher (1746- ) and bishop (1762- ) at Skippack.
The following is taken from an old book which was printed in Germany in 1581, and was brought over to this country by Dielman Kolb and was in the possession of the family until 1895, when it was sold at public sale after the death of Daniel K. Cassel, Harleysville, PA.
(Translation)
Anno, 1691, the 10th of November, I Dielman Kolb, was born into this world at one o'clock in the afternoon. Anno 1714, on St. Jacob's Day, in the 23rd year of my age, I was married
to my housewife, Elizabeth. Anno, 1717, the 21st of March, we went to Ibersheim, in the Palatinate, on the journey to Pennsylvania and the 10th August, 1717, arrived safely here
in Philadelphia.
This book belongs to me, Dielman Kolb, and I have received it from Jacob Schnebli of Manheim, in the Palatinate, Anno Dom., 1722 at this time dwelling in Solforth township, in the County of Philadelphia, in Pennsylvania.
Dielman Kolb made his will July 8, 1748, and it was proved April 30, 1757,
nearly nine years later. In this will, he named as trustees his "loving and
trusty friend Henry Funk" and John Ulrich Berger. He provided well for his
widow, Elizabeth, during her natural life; it is not know how long she
survived him. Except for 50 acres of land to be laid out of that part next
adjoining the land he had sold to his stepson, Jacob Snebley, which he left
to his grandson Dielman Ziegler, he bequeathed to his only child, Elizabeth,
wife of Andrew Ziegler, Sr., all his lands, plantations and tenements whatsoever.
To his stepson, Matthias, and granddaughter, Catherine Ziegler, he left cash
money and to the "Congregation of ye Dutch Mennonists in Salford" he bequeathed
2 pounds 1 shilling and to the Mennonists of "Perkyomin & Skepack," he left a

Dielman Kolb died December 28, 1756. David Shultze, the surveyor, entered upon
his notebook the following under date of December 28, 1756: "Der alte Dielman
Kolb zu Shippack is auch gestorben d. 28th xbr." And then on December 30:
"Went to Shippack to the burial." While there is no doubt that he was buried
in the graveyard adjoining the church in Lower Salford, which he so long and
faithfully served, there is no stone standing today to mark his last resting
place. He was in his sixty-seventh year, not quite having reached the alotted
three score and ten. "Few men, even in that day of heroic characters, can lay
claim to a nobler life, and while no monument marks his last resting place, his
name for all time will be indissolubly linked with that great historical work
of the Pennsylvania Mennonites, the most durable monument of the denomination.
