  JOHN W. EREHART, of Swan Creek, has for many years served as chaplain of Hendricks Grand Army Post of Colton.  He enlisted in the Union Army Dec. 17, 1863, in Company H, Eighty-eighth Indiana Volunteer Inf., his home then being in DeKalb county, Indiana.  He was in many of the hard fought battles of the Civil war and marched with General Sherman from Atlanta to the sea.  He was mustered out of the service June 1, 1865, and the regiment disbanded the twentieth of the same month.  Mr. Erehart votes with the republican party.
     While Mr. Erehart's army record shows him as a soldier from Indiana, he was born Dec. 6, 1844, in Stark county, Ohio.  He is a son of Adam and Maria (Kiner) Erehart.  The father came from Germany, but the mother was a native of Pennsylvania.  Adam Erehart's parents died when he was fourteen years old, and he came to join some brothers who were already in the United States.  He worked at the shoemaker's trade and was married in Pennsylvania.  Soon after his marriage he came to Stark county, and in 1848 he removed to DeKalb county, Indiana, where he bought a farm of forty acres.  He died there in 1887, and his wife died seven years later.
     In the Erehart family there was a daughter, Catherine, who died in infancy; John W. was the second child;
Daniel of Steele City, Nebraska; Mary Jane, deceased, was the wife of Lon Henning; Eleanor, wife of Henry St. Clair, of Auburn, Indiana; Eliza, deceased, was the wife of William Pepple and Adam died at the age of five years.
     On Oct. 11, 1868, Mr. Erehart married Elvira Mathews, of DeKalb county, Indiana.  She is a daughter of Nathan and Maria (Richmond) Mathews.  The father was a native of Vermont while the mother was born in the state of New York.  Her paternal grandparents, John and Chloe (Hatch) Mathews, were early settlers in Portage county, Ohio.
     After his marriage Mr. Erehart lived in Newaygo county, Michigan, where he followed farming, and in winter he worked in the lumber camps for six years.  When he sold the Michigan farm he removed to DeKalb county, Indiana, remaining there three years, when he located in Henry county, Ohio.  After living eight years in Henry county Mr. Erehart sold out again and located in Swan Creek Township.  He bought a twenty-four acre tract of improved land and selling it he bought forty acres where he lives today.  He remained as an active farmer until 1917, when a son assumed charge and he lives there in retirement.
     The children born to Mr. and Mrs. Erehart are: Ralph of Huntington, Indiana; Nellie, wife of William Wagoner, of Toledo; Edward, at home; and Gladys, wife of Joseph  McCullough of Toledo.
