On August 18, 1862, John Everhart enlisted in the Union Army in the town of Hudson, Missouri. At the time, he gave his occupation as "farmer" and his residence as Macon County. He was mustered into A company, 27th Missouri Infantry Regiment on September 4, 1862 at the "Benton Barracks" near St Louis, and apparently served with the unit at the Battle of Vicksburg in July 1863. For unknown reasons, Company A and John Everhart remained behind when the regiment moved east. John was reported as "Absent, sick" on May 2, 1865 at Millikins Bend, Louisiana, and was mustered out on June 13, 1865. He returned to Missouri and was a blacksmith in Taborville (St Clair County) until his death in 1883. He is buried next to his mother (Anna) and sister (Hilla Maytell).
