Hiram was an early pioneer in Illinois. He married Julia Ann Ford on 31 Mar 1839 in Lake Co., Illinois. Julia Ann did not care for living in the wilds of Illinois or Wisconsin and moved back with parents.

When he disposed of Wisconsin home he moved to Atlanta, Logan Co., IL where he purchased land & also engaged in the meat market business.

He stayed there 2yrs (abt 1859) & returned to Lake Co, locating in Aug. of 1859 in Ela Twp purchasing a farm of 154 A. Sold this farm in 1865 after renting it out for a few years. He then bought a home in Wauconda 12/22/1862.
