He enlisted for service in the War of 1812, but peace was declared before his company reached Gen. Harrison's army. He was a blacksmith by trade, followed butchering for some time and had a store at Donegal. He was an exemplary member of the Lutheran church.

"He never exhibited anger, used an unbecoming word or took a drink of liquor."
