born January 20, 1790, served three months in the war of 1812, and 
arrived in Kentucky September 29, 1816.  He located in Burlington, and

educated at the Morgan Academy in Burlington, and at the age of 
nineteen entered the circuit clerk's office.  In 1859 he was appointed 
to fill a vacancy for one year.  He then went to Kenton County, where 
he was clerk of the circuit chancery and criminal court for thirteen 
years, and assessor of the city of Covington for one year; for ten 
years he was director of the Northern Bank of Covington.  He was 
elected a member of the State Board of Equalization, and still holds 
that position.  While in the clerk's office at Burlington he studied 
law, and in March, 1881, removed to Williamstown, Grant County, and 
began practice.  For two years he has been a director of the Grant 
County Deposit Bank.  He owns a fine farm of 196 acres, one and 
one-half miles north of the town.  December 23, 1857, he married Miss
