In 1920, Aaron had partnered with 6-other men, living in a logging camp where he was employed, located in the Leban Precinct of Pacific County.

By 1930, Aaron had become sick and required medical treatment. He was institutionalized at the West State Mental Hospital at Fort Steilacoom, Pierce County, Washington.
