[I also found three children, John (Married in 1781), Margaret Elizabeth and Maria Elizabeth (Born 1781) that may be Johannes and Maria's children.  Although, other solutions may be possible.  John may be John Andrew and he might have remarried.  Margaret Elizabeth and Maria Elizabeth might both be John Andrew and Elizabeth's children.]

Johannes Diebert departed from Rotterdam on July 10, 1752 on the ship "Pearl" and arrived in Halifax, Nova Scotia on August 22, 1752.  Johannes, aged 32 years, was accompanied by his wife, Maria Elizabeth Margerin and her mother, Maria Rosina Margerin.  Upon arrival in Halifax, they were held on board for two weeks and discharged on September 5, 1752.  They remained in Halifax for the winter.  Maria Rosina Margerin died between December 1752 and February 1753.  On May 28, 1753, Johannes, his family and 1,450 other German immigrants set sail from Halifax on fourteen small vessels along the southwest shore to Merliquesh (or Merligash) Bay.  They arrived on June 7 and founded the community of Lunenburg.   In Lunenburg, Johannes received 30 acres of farm land.  In a second drawing of lots on November 7, 1763, he received 300 acres.  In 1770-71, Johannes volunteered labour in the construction of the Lutheran Church, Lunenburg.
