Spouse1: Harriet R Wilson m. 15 Aug 1844
Spouse2: Emma L Bird m. 5 Feb 1867

From a Marblehead, MA family, Nathaniel resided in Boston where he worked as a commission merchant with the firm of Minot, Hopper & Co. The firm was engaged in East Indian trade until 1857 when, according to his obituary in the Boston Morning Journal "they became selling agents for the Dwight Manufacturing Company, the Great Falls Manufacturing Company and the Lyman Mills." He was also a Director of the Suffolk National Bank. The 1860 U.S. Census indicates his real and personal estate holdings had a combined value of $20,000, far above the average for that time period. He and his wife also employed four servants for their home on Beacon St., Boston.
