He was the Sheriff of Knox County in 1842 and 1844. At the time of the 1840 census he had 2 male children age under 5, 2 males age 5 - 10, 2 males age 10-15, 1 male age 20-30 and one male age 40-50. He and his family appear on the 1850 Census of Knox County, living in the village of Fredericktown. His age on that census was 47. His tombstone says that he was born in 1798, but that doesn't agree with anything else. Hill's History of Knox County (1881) says that they had 9 children.
