John Mohler was a man of a cheerful disposition, possessing merry blue eyes, rather light hair, large features, and the air of a man accustomed to prosperity. He always wore drab clothes and rode a gray horse, which he sat with military dignity. He was not a church man,in a strict sense. He married Magdaline Rinehart in Pa., a woman of great piety,
noted for her industry and integrity, and for her beautiful black eyes, delicate features, and charming good nature. For many years she was a consistent member of the Dunker church. She was buried in the Middle River German Baptist or Dunkard Churchyard, in Augusta County, Virginia, in 1853, at the age of 75 years, 10 mo. and 16 das. Her grand-daughter, Martha Barnhart, many years later, erected a marble monument to her memory.
