He was born on the old family farm in Smith township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, and at the age of eighteen years began to teach school, following that profession several years. He then became a clerk at Cross Creek village, continuing as such twenty-one years. He finally engaged in the hardware business at Burgettstown, Smith township, and in 1875 was elected county recorder. At the expiration of his term of office he moved to Canonsburg, and was then profitably employed in handling grain and machinery.

He was a politician, working for the interests of the Republican party.
