Son of Henry Pletcher and Catherine Sternaman. Born in Conestoga Township, Lancaster County. He made the trek to Centre County with his father and family. Cause of death unkown. Probably the first Pletcher burial in Centre County.

Originally buried in what came to be known as the Butler Cemetery. In the fall of 1904, the graves were moved to the Schenck Cemetery. The graves originally had home-made markers of native mountain stone. In 1911 descendants of Henry Pletcher raised money to place a joint monument on the graves of these earliest Pletcher burials: Henry, Samuel, Anna, Daniel and Jonathan Pletcher. These same graves were again moved in 1967 when the Shenck Cemetery was relocated during the construction of Sayers Dam.
