Our subject remained with his parents until he was seventeen years of age, and his education consisted of the limited curriculum of the public schools of that day ; the most beneficial course of study pursued by him was during an attendance of six months at the Knightstown, Ind., public schools, after he had passed his twenty-fifth year ; when seventeen years old, he commenced working at the carpenter's trade, and continued until he was forty years of age, a part of which time uniting the business of a millwright. He located in Prairie Township, of this (Tipton) county, in the fall of 1851, on a tract of land containing 400 acres, which is his present farm and place of residence. When he removed to Tipton County, he was the owner of 320 acres of land in Delaware County, Ind., which he has since disposed of, and invested the proceeds in Howard County soil ; he never received any assistance in a financial way, and has become the possessor of his present property by good management and hard toil ; he has been twice married, the first time to Miss Sarah Hopper, February 5, 1833 ; this lady died October 10, 1833 ; hia second marriage occurred December 26, 1839, to Miss Margaret Myers, by whom he is the father of four children, viz.: William F.
