"John Plants served in the Union Army. He was wounded at the battle of Cedar Creek on October 19, 1864 when a leaden bullet weighing one ounce passed through his left arm between the wrist and elbow.
He was a cooper by trade and became affiliated with the Methodist Church and for more than fifty years lived a consistent Christian life.
He was active in politics and was an adamant Republican.
When a new church was built, Eddy Chapel, he sold the last milk cow he owned to finish paying the debt on the church so it could be dedicated debt-free.

He second married Sarah Catherine Hoschar, who bore him eight children.
He third married Emily Morris who bore him five children."
