He received a common school education and in early life taught school for several years. In 1848 he was elected to the office of register and recorder, and re-elected in 1851. He engaged in the insurance busi-ness in 1860, and from that date up to 1873 followed that business in connection with a foundry and marble shop. In 1867 he was elected to the legislature, and served in the sessions of 1868-69. He continued in the insurance business to the time of his death. Politically, he was a Whig and afterwards a Repub-lican, and a leading spirit in public affairs. In 1862 he enlisted in Company G, Fourteenth Pennsylvania Militia, which went out to assist in repelling Lee's invasion of the State. He was a member of Connoquenessing Lodge, Number 278, I. O. O. F., and Butler Lodge, Number 272, F. & A. M. In religious belief, he was a Presbyterian.
He was a prominent citizen of Butler, Pennsylvania, a farmer in early life, justice of the peace, merchant, livery owner, founder of an insurance business, en-gaged in monumental works projects, and head of the firm of McJunkin & Kearns, foundry, the first of its kind in the county.
