In 1890 he came to Clay County, Iowa, where he was engaged in farming until 1901 when he moved to Cottonwood County, Minnesota, afterwards buying a farm in Christiana Township, Jackson County, where he has lived since. January 2, 1919 he was united in marriage to Miss Lena Wienes (sic: Wiens) of that county. To this union were born two children. For the past year his health has been failing him. Several days before his death he took the flu, dying on the morning of February 21, 1923 at the age of 50 years, 10 months, and 20 days.
