+==Occupation==
 <!--Insert information about the persons occupations here -->He was a Farmer. Adam's farm was located on the present corner of Rock Rd. and Helderberg Trail along the Foxenkill. Because he was among the first settlers at the Beaver Dam by 1740, he did not have to enter into a Rent Lease with the Albany patroon who had not yet discovered settlers in the Helderbergs. Surveys of the farms in the Helderbergs were carried out after Adam's death, about 1786-87. It was the next Dietz generation, Col. Johan Jost Dietz who entered into a Rent Lease on 20 Mar 1787 for lots no. 610 & 659; Adam's original farm of 170 acres. His house and barn would have been of log construction, common of all buildings then.
