At the age of two he moved with his parents to Tazewell Co., Ill., where he grew to manhood. At an early age he accepted Christ as his Saviour and was an active member of the Mennonite Church until his death. On Feb. 28, 1878, he was married to Fanny Gunden of Wayland, Iowa. To this union were born six children (Peter of Pompeii, Mich.; William of Pigeon, Mich.; John of Royal Oak, Mich.; and Katie, Mrs. John Webb, of Royal Oak, Mich.; Lydia, who preceded him in death; and also an infant daughter).

He was much interested in the work of the Lord, always being willing to do his part in the Sunday school or wherever he was needed; always faithful in attending services, being in Sunday school and teaching his class May 30, just a few days before his death.

Besides his sons and daughter, he leaves 17 grandchildren, 9 great-grandchildren, and numerous relatives and friends.

Funeral services were held in the home at Royal Oak, and then the body was taken to Pigeon, Mich., where services were held at the Pigeon River Mennonite Church and burial was in the adjoining cemetery.
