-Col.Johan Jost Dietz was a farmer, a storekeeper and businessman. He was confirmed on Aug 8, 1779 at Schoharie Lutheran Church, Schoharie, NY. He served in Capt. Christian Strubrach's Company, 15th Regiment of the Albany Country Militia, at the Old Stone Fort during the Revolutionary War, according to his pension application of Feb.5, 1834, made at the age of 73. He continued with local military training after the War in the NY State militia , and earned the rank of Colonel. (He was later known around Bernville as Col. Dietz). By 1787 he had married and inherited or purchased the 166 acre farm at Beaverdam, Albany,NY, that his Uncle Adam(brother of William)had homesteaded in 1740 on the Foxenkill between present day Berne and West Berne. (His Uncle Adam had died leaving no living children).His house at 393 Rock Road is currently(2009) owned by Steve and Amy Anderson and sons. In 1812, Col.Johan Jost and partner '''[[Jacob Settle]]''' opened a store on the Colonel's property. They were very successful at exporting potash to NYC and selling other goods to the local population. The census of 1800 shows he had five slaves. One slave, '''[[Jacob (Jack) Deitz]]''', is buried near a monument at nearby  '''[[b:Berne and Beaverdam Cemetery|Berne and Beaverdam Cemetery]]''', [[b:Berne|Berne]], Albany,NY. In 1835, a bank of yellow clay on his farm was used to make bricks for the new '''[[b:St. Paul's Lutheran Church|St. Paul's Lutheran Church]]''', Berne, Albany, NY. He invested heavily, with other Bernville citizens , in the Daniel Simmons Axe Factory in 1825. Bernville prospered until 1833 when Simmons moved the factory to Cohoes. Col.Johan Jost and others lost much from that and a second investment in a Bernville Acadamy and female seminary planned to begin building just before the axe factory closed. Col. Dietz was active in public service. He served the community as collector in 1792, assessor in 1795, commissioner of excise in 1803 and 1805, overseer of the poor in 1805, and supervisor in 1797-98, 1812-13, and in 1818.
