The Dietelbach
family arrived in the Ponoka area in 1944. Jake Dietelbach was born
in Austria of German descent, but was raised in Medicine Hat, Alberta.
He married a woman of German descent there, and they had a daughter,
Dorothy.
The family then moved to Bashaw, Alberta for a year, and then purchased
the Dan Card place where they lived for 5 years before moving to the
Hazel Hill district. After 5 years on the Crouse farm, the family
moved to Wetaskawin, returning to the Arbor Park district where they
raised sheep.
After Ms. Dietelbach passed away in 1963, Jack moved into the town
of Ponoka and worked as an engineer and maintenance man at the General
Hospital. |
