According to his sister Mamie, Jim lost the sight in one eye from a scissor accident. In about 1902 he married Lydia Harzmeier, the daughter of William "Henry" Harzmeir and Mathilda (Weber) from Germany, though Jim and Lydia had no children. Jim resided in St. Louis and appears to have worked for his brother Tom at the lumber company. A note written by Jim's father on a paper with the letterhead of West St. Louis Trust Co, reads: My Boy 10:30 Taken away from me - Nov 2nd 1912. Oh Jim - Jim Jim - what will I do"
His father died three years later in 1915, and his widow Lydia later married Albin H. Johnson. She died in 1947.
