He learned the blacksmith's trade in his native county, and before reaching his majority removed with his parents to Beaver County, Pennsylvania. He there married and continued working at his trade for some five years after his marriage. He then purchased a farm of seventy-five acres in Beaver County, where he resided for a period of thirty years. At the end of this time he bought a farm in Lancaster township, Butler County, settled upon it and lived there until his death. He and his wife were members of the Baptist church, and in politics, he was an adherent of the Republican party.
