He followed that trade in Potter (then Middlesex) a number of years; built a saw-mill in Allegany County, and afterwards was a farmer. He was a just and upright man, and in all respects was a good citizen—was inclined to the Quakers in religious faith. Their children are Samuel, Alma, Semantha, Mary Jane, Ezekiel C., and Elizabeth. Samuel married Mary, daughter of Peter J. Dinehart, and resides on a farm adjoining the homestead. Alma is the wife of George T. Millspaugh, of Jerusalem. Semantha is the wife of Abner Gardner Champlin, of West Jerusalem. Mary Jane is the wife of Cyrenus Townsend, of West Jerusalem. Ezekiel C. married Sarah Ann, daughter of Isaac Adams of Jerusalem.
