John Christner
John Christner and his wife Frannie Johns (Schantz) were Amish settlers
on a farm at Compton on Mt. Davis in 1775. A memorial stone was
placed at the Church of the Brethren Cemetery at Savage since their
burial stones on the original cemetery at Compton were removed and
destroyed. A
train's caboose marks the original spot.
He did not serve in a military unit; however, he paid the 1783
Federal Supply Tax.
