http://www.barenada.com/neisha/deal2.html DEAL FAMILY HISTORY and RESEARCH SUMMARY Sent to me by Bob and Fran Matkins Although German in origin, the bulk of the family in this country has come to be identified with that group of early Americans known as the "Pennsylvania Dutch". The early English settlers coined this term and although they really meant to say "Deutsch", meaning German, the word soon became corrupted into "Dutch". They applied this name to those German, Swiss, and even French Huguenots who had arrived here in the 1700's and early 1800's and settled first in that small area roughly defined as south-central and eastern Pennsylvania. In the late 1700's many of these immigrants, or their descendants, began migrating down into the Shenandoah Valley area of Maryland and Virginia and into certain counties of North Carolina. The early 1800's brought the big land lotteries which attracted these people to Georgia, Missouri, etc. At this same time the big push into Ohio and the Midwest began. [17] In 1724 about ten thousand Palatine embarked from French ports destined for New Orleans. They have been swallowed up with the French immigration to Louisana and their German surnames "Frenchified". The big immigration in Texas occurred in the 1840's and the California Gold Rush attracted a number of them. The spelling of a surname generally has little significance. Even Benjamin Franklin would sometimes write his name as "Franklyn". As the tax lists show, one year we have George Deel in Milford Twp., Bucks County, PA and in subsequent years he is listed as Dell, Tell, Teell, and Deal. However, the variations in the spelling of the name came about --- either in an attempt by the family member to conform with his English neighbors, or an English clerk's phonetic spelling of the name --- it makes the researcher's task more difficult. [17] Early 18th Century Palatine Emmigration In 1709 Queen Anne of England, desiring good Protestant, sturdy workers to colonize the Mohawk Valley in New York State and work her tar pits there, financed 6 shiploads of Germans from the Palatinate or Pfalz area of South Germany. They sailed from Amsterdam harbor in Holland and landed in London where they lived in wretched, miserable conditions. Some she sent to certain Irish counties but most sailed for New York. They found conditions in the Mohawk Valley almost as bad as those they had left behind -- their area in Germany had earlier been devastated by the 30 Years' War -- and many returned in 1711 to Germany. Many also migrated down into the Tuplehocken Valley area of Pennsylvania but the majority settled in New York where today that area is filled with German names. Sailing with the 3rd party which embarked 5-10 June 1709 were Johan Diel and wife. The 4th party sailed 21 June 1709 with Henrig Diel, Ananias Tiell (with wife and two children). The 5th party sailed 15 July 1709 with Kristiaan Diel and wife. Sixth party sailed 28 July 1709 with Johan Jurg Diel and wife and one child. Those who returned to Holland in 1711 were Christiaan Dhiel and one person, Herman Diehl and three persons, George Thiel and four persons, Johannes Thiel and two persons. Governor Hunter issued rations for these emigrants and in 1710 Annanias Dill (alias Thiel) had two adults and two children. Any one under 10 was considered a child. In 1712 he had 1-2 on these subsistence lists. Wilhelm Dill had 1-2 in 1710 and 1-0 in 1712. Anna Clara Dillin ("in" or "en" denoted female) had 1-0 in 1710 and 1712. Adolph Thiel had 2-1 both years. The Simmendinger Register shows that in 1717 Wilhelm Diell, wife, and one child were living in New York City. [17] Lists of Germans From the Palatinate Who Came to England in 1709 Most of these Germans eventally found their way to New York's Mohawk Valley. On 27 May 1709, Bernard Tiel, age 40, husbandman and vinedresser (h & v), his wife, sons aged 13,10,2, and daughters aged 18,11,6,4 were members of the Reformed Church. ON 2 June 1709, Johann Tiel, age 22, h & v, and his wife were members of Catholic Church. Adolf Diel, age 32, h & v, and his wife were member of Reformed Church. On 11 June 1709, John Thiel, age 50, h & v, his wife, daughter age 18 and 12 were members of Lutheran Church. Herman Tiel, age 26, h & v, his wife and daughter age 2 were member of Lutheran Church. Jacob Tiel, age 24, a cooper, was member of Lutheran Church. Ananias Tiel, age 36, a wheelwright, his wife and sons age 5 and 1 were members of Lutheran Church. [17] Pennsylvania German Pioneers These three volumes comprise an almost lifetime work of leading Pennsylvania Dutch authorities, Dr Strassburger and Dr Hinke. They are the most complete collection of immigration lists for the Pennsylvania Dutch. The law required that three lists be made of the passengers for each ship. One was made by the Captain, one by the clerk on the dock at Philadelphia, and the third was the signatures of the immigrants themselves. However, only infrequently were the three lists actually made. And although you would expect the one signed by the immigrants to be the most accurate, this was not always the case. Some could only make their "X", some attempted to scrawl their signatures, and many were illiterately illegible. When the lists differ, the spelling variations are placed in brackets. Port of embarkation was Rotterdam unless otherwise shown. Hans Michl (Michel) Tiell (Diel) with 3-1/2 persons in his party arrived on the "William and Sarah" on 18 September 1727. Weyan Teale (Wyan Diell) came on "Molley" on 30 September 1727. Alexander Till (Alex-... [page 3 ends, pages 4 and 5 missing, beginning on page 6] ..migrants named in the ship lists was Michael Diel who located in Philadelphia. On a list of passengers mainly from Ireland arriving in American ports was Francis Deale from Granard who arrived in the port of New York in 1815 on the "Amphion". The port of departure was Dublin.

For quarter ending 30 September 1820 were: J Diehl (male, age 22) a smith from Germany and A M Diehl (female, age 25) a servant from Germany on "Unity" intending to become inhabitants of US. [17] Passengers Who Arrived in the United States, 1821-23 Dehl, age 38, male, shoemaker from France arrived on the "Baltic" for the quarter ending (q.e.) 31 December 1821.

They landed on the Texas coast, mostly at Galveston, and traveled inland to specially formed counties that awaited them. Among these immigrants were Christian Diehl, age 56, who died, from Bretthausen, his widow Christine nee Brandenberger, and eight persons and one baby, who arrived in 1845 on the "Garonne". Martin Diehl, single from Camberg, in 1846 on the "Bohemia". Christian Thiel, single, age 25, in 1844 on "Ferdinand". Gustav Thiel arrived in 1846 on "Franziska" and resided in Galveston County.

Wilhiem Thiele, single, came from Pohlde, in 1846 on "Talisman". [17] California Pioneer Register and Index In 1844 John Deal, an American sailor of the "Benjamin Morgan" landed sick and was aided by the consul at Mont. in 1844-5. In 1846, J F Diel was in company F of California Battalion. Also, in 1846 Valentine Diel was in this same company. In 1848 he had a lot at San Francisco. 'The name was perhaps, Diehl, who, according to Ballhaus, was an overland immigrant with Hoppe and Harlan. He was still at San Francisco, a grocer, in 1852-4, and later a farmer near Mayfield, where he died about 1882.' Hiram Teal, native of New England, brought a stock of goods from Mazatlan and kept a store at San Francisco in 1841-43. He went to Honolulu in 1843 on the "Diamond" en route for Mexico.
