Ammon Ashford Hennacy was born in 1893 in Negley, Ohio, to Benjamin and Lida Fitz-Randolph Hennacy. He married Selma Melms in 1919, they were divorced in 1964, and then he married Joan Thomas. Hennacy was a "Christian-anarchist-pacifist" (as he called himself) who never paid taxes or went to war. He was a conscientious objector in both world wars, and a lifelong anti-war activist. He wrote two books, The Book of Ammon (1965) and The One-Man Revolution in America (1970). Ammon Hennacy died on 14 January 1970.
