He was educated in the public schools and at Witherspoon Institute. He learned the printer's trade with his father and Jacob Ziegler, and followed his trade for a short period. In 1875 he purchased some oil wells upon the Dougherty farm, near Petrolia, Pennsylvania, and later operated five wells in Centre township. In 1878 he went to the Bradford field, where he operated for some years, then went south, and was engaged in mining for five years in the James and Shenandoah valleys, Virginia. Returning to Butler in 1887, he again embarked in oil producing, and developed many wells in different parts of the county. In politics he was a Republican, and served in the borough council.
