no stone. John was a union soldier during the Civil War. Private 2nd Company Regiment M Cavalry and Company I, 7th Cavalry Missouri Volunteers.

The following was taken from "THE COMPANY ROLL, With a Brief Comment Upon Each Member of COMPANY I, 7th Cavalry Missouri Volunteers" by Sergeant John Shaver, Kirksville, Missouri-1898, page 14:
Old Johnny Keown was loyal and good,
And he stayed in the service as long as he could,
But being quite old and not very large,
Was finally compelled to take a discharge.
