Everett Frank Gehrt was born on April 5, 1916, in the town of Levis, to Harry and Marie (nee Baumel) Gehrt. He was raised on the family farm and received his education in the Columbia area. He married Janette K. Buelow on Nov. 18, 1942, at her parents’farm in the town of York. They farmed in the Pine Valley area until 1948, and then bought a farm south of Loyal.
