He was brought to Craigsville, Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, when five years old, and was thenceforward reared there. He learned the woolen manufacturing business in all its details, in the employ of the Craigsville Woolen Manufacturing Company, established in 1844, and became sole proprietor of the works in 1902. Two years later he sold three-fourths of the interest, and was thereafter vice president of the company, which operated under the name of the Craigsville Woolen Manufacturing Company. A specialty was blankets, flannels and skirts, employment being given to forty people. This concern had one of the leading industrial plants of West Franklin township.
