As a young boy with his father he moved to Jefferson County OH near Steubenville. At the age of 20 in 1835 he went by boat down the Ohio River and then up to Rock Island IL. He then walked across the country to where Chicago now stands and worked the summer . He headed south to Logansport and soon located in Bethlehem Township where he lived until the death of his first wife Miss Troutman in 1878. They had four children. 1881 he built a boat and steamed down the Wabash and Ohio Rivers to Metropolis IL where he has since resided, having married Mrs. Julia Turner of that place.
