home with his mother and worked upon the farm until

She was born in Chester, Randolph Co., 111. Her
father was a native of Connecticut, and both her
parents were early settlers in that county. At the
time of his marriage he purchased land on section 2,
Coe Township, and upon it built at first a small
frame house, but four years afterward a larger frame
structure, which he occupied. He improved the
farm and resided there until 1867, when he sold it
and went to Missouri, locating in Cedar County. He
bought there a farm five miles from Virgil City, and
after residing upon it two years he sold and returned,
to Cordova, where he bought a farm adjoining the
village. Soon afterward, in company with his brother,
William G., he engaged in buying grain, in which he
continued until his death, which occurred July 21,
1876.
