He emigrated from Hanover, Prussia, to America, after the Revolutionary War but prior to 1800, settling for a short time in New York, after which he came to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and was employed by James O'Hara in his glass works. Later he, with several other gentlemen, among them William Eichbaum and Christian Ihmsen, established the Birmingham Glass Company, at what was then Birmingham, later known as the South Side, Pittsburgh.
