He enlisted in Co. D, 21st Iowa Volunteers and saw three years of active service in the states of the southwest.

He was for many years a prominent business man of Volga City. May 9, 1877 he was united in marriage to Frances D. White, of Cohocton, N.Y. His home has been at Knowlton, Iowa, for the past five years. In that city he passed peacefully away December 11, 1902.
