Bio of son David gives his father's birth date and place and says: When he was sixteen months old, his parents removed to Perry County, PA, where he received his education in the subscription schools. When a boy, he drove an ore cart at the old Juniata Furnace; at the age of eleven, he was put out to work, and after this was never at home, except to make short visits to his parents. At the age of nineteen years, he learned carpentry. Three years previous to his marriage, he bought a tract of land in Sugar Run valley, situated in the wilderness and clothed in its native forests. Here he determined to make a home, and proceeded to clear the land and build a house. A comfortable log house was soon in readiness, and this was their residence for many years. About 1865, Mr. Ehrhart exchanged this place for the farm which his son, D.M. Ehrhart, now occupies. In 1885, he relinquished active pursuits and retired to Juniata township, where he now resides. Mr. Ehrhart is a Prohibitionist; he has never sought any office.
In 1847, John Ehrhart married Elmira Super. It lists the children of John and Elmira. Mr. Ehrhart is a man who loves peace, and does all in his power to make social intercourse agreeable. He never sued a man in his life, and was never sued but once, and then his opponent had to pay the costs of the suit.
Bio of son William Nelson states he "was a carpenter and builder and also engaged in agricultural pursuits. The last fifteen years of his life he lived retired. He had a well merited reputation in the county as a man of unquestioned honor and high Christian character. He and his wife were member of the Lutheran Church. The Ehrhart family is well known and highly esteemed."
