He departed on his birthday anniversary and landed at Cas­tle Garden, New York, April 24, 1862, im­mediately thereafter going to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where he worked at the trade of a shoemaker some five years, and then moved to Butler County, and worked on different farms. After his marriage he lived on the old Marburger farm near Callery several years, and followed his trade. In 1878, he opened a present store at what beame Reibold Station. He carried a general line of goods, almost every­thing for which there was demand in a country store, and had the patronage of the people of that vicinity.
