"I moved with my family when about three years old to the Fork of the Big Wheeling, Virginia, about twelve miles above the city of Wheeling. I was apprenticed to Col. James Rupple at Washington, Pa, learning the carpenter and joining trade from about 1818 until I was of age. I married Annie Marlatt of Washington, PA, 8 Jan 1824. We moved to Pittsburgh in 1825 and to Allegheny in 1826, where I resided for many years engaging in the manufacture and sale of furniture. I took an active part in public affairs and held various positions and offices both by elections and by appointment in the borough, county, state, and government. I was a member of the Borough Council, a school director at different times, Clerk of the County Courts, Post Master under President Pierce and Superintendent of the Marine Hospital in Allegheny under President Buchanan. My wife died in June 1845. I married Annie McKenzie in July 1847. I joined the Christian Church 5 Jul 1830 in Pittsburgh. My parents were Presbyterian. When I was a boy I was a Methodist. I'm a Democrat in Politics."
