At some point in the early 1900s, he left West Virginia and began working for the Pennsylvania Railroad. By 1920 he had married Martha Bell Norris from Frazeysburg, OH. He was a graphic manager for Addressograph and Multigraph in Cleveland, OH. He died of a heart attack in his Euclid, OH,apartment on 30 Jul 1967 after making sure that his private nurse had been paid for her services. He and Martha never had children. When I was about 10 or 11, I took his picture when he came for a visit. I sent him a copy, and he sent me back $1.00...the price of a new roll of film!
