He was a ship's carpenter and hull caulker for local towing companies. He and his family lived in a houseboat of his own building, generally tied up at Kingtown, near Krodel Park. When his skills were needed in other areas, he would tie up his houseboat to a towboat heading in that direction. His house was often seen in Cedar Grove on the Kanawha river among other places.
