Misener, John H., whose services during the Civil War entitled him to the 
consideration of his government, long was an important factor in the life of 
Maine Township. He was born in Hamilton County, 0., December 22, 1834, a son 
of Ransom Misener. In 1851 he came to Grundy County, and worked among the 
farmers until he enlisted, April 27, 1862, at Ottawa, Ill., for service during 
the Civil War, in Company G, One Hundred and Fourth Illinois Volunteer 
Infantry, and was honored discharged June 6, 1865. After the war he returned 
home and lived in Braceville Township until his marriage, when he located in 
what is now Maine Township, there becoming the owner of considerable property. 
On December 12, 1867, he married Esther C. Hill, and they had two children:  
Emma S. and Arthur H.
