• Notes

  At the age of seven his parents moved to Warren County, Ohio, where he was reared on a farm and attended the pioneer schools. Learned the cabinet-maker trade of his brother-in-law, George LaFetra, and engaged in that work for fifteen years. In 1836 moved to Piqua for two years, thence to a farm he had purchased several years before in Brown Township, Miami County. He cleared the forest, and today fine buildings have taken the place of his rude huts and barns. During the Civil War he sold this farm and purchased another in the same township. In 1865 he moved to a farm purchased of his nephew, James LaFetra, near Oakland, Clinton county, but later returned to Miami County, near Oakland, where he died.
