Tom became a stage driver in Mendocino County in the late 1880s before taking his trade to Tuolumne and Calaveras counties. He was a regular driver on the Big Oak Flat Road into Yosemite Valley.

A favorite stage stop in Chinese Camp was the Garrett House operated by Count C.W.H. Solinsky, a refugee from Poland. Reported widely as handsome with a cheerful and likeable character, Tom married the Count's daughter, Maggie, on 23 March 1892 in Chinese Camp. The couple began their family and moved north to San Andreas and later to Sonora where Tom was bartending in 1900.

Soon thereafter, Tom began developing debilitating conditions that put him under the treatment of doctors in San Francisco. His cause of death was listed as inanition, an absence or loss of social, moral, or intellectual vitality or vigor.

Tom's sister and brother-in-law came south from Ukiah to make funeral arrangements from San Francisco. The body was transported to Tuolumne County and the C.H. Burden Undertaking Co. for the funeral and burial on 27 August 1902.
