Soon after their marriage they came to Warren County, and for a time he was engaged in working by the month, but later began buying land, and at the time of his death owned 520 acres, all in Spring Grove Township. He always fed stock, believing and proving there was profit in doing so. His death occurred in 1896, and his widow survived himn for only two years. Their children were as follows: John, who lives in Shenandoah, Iowa; Mollie, who is the widow of James McNamire, lives at Kansas City, Missouri; Anistaha, who married John Berrigan of Omaha, Nebraska, Julia, who is the widow of Fred Archer of Shenandoah, Iowa; Morris, who lives in Knox County, Illinois; Harriet, who is Mrs. Mathew Crilley of Shenandoah, Iowa; Anna, who is Mrs. Roy Mackison of Shenandoah, Iowa; Norah, who is Mrs. Michael Mason of Monmouth, Illinois; Catherine, who is Mrs. Lee Sloan of New Boston, Illinois; Frances, who is deceased, married Harry Gardner; David Henry, whose name heads this review; Blanche, who is Mrs. James O'Donnald of Chicago; and Theresa, who is Mrs. Richard Lafferty of Mercer County, Illinois.
