He was born in Mercer County, Pennsylvania, and was reared in Crawford County. In 1862 he entered the employ of Hozen & Trunk, as foreman on the construction of the Jamestown & Franklin railroad, afterward engaged in the teaming business, and subsequently engaged in the manufacture of boots and shoes at Turner's Corners, Mercer County. In 1865 he came to Oil creek and was in the employ of various parties. In 1874 he settled in Sugar Creek and engaged in teaming. In 1880 he entered the employ of Yates & Grant, with whom he remained five years. He then entered the employ of J. Hurley, as well as operating some production of his own. He filled the office of road commissioner six years, was elected justice of the peace in 1882, and re-elected in 1889. He was a member of the K. of H. and in politics a Democrat. [HVC 1890, 1045]
