  • Notes 
    • From before 1870 until at least 1885 he farmed in Castle Rock, Dakota, Minnesota. Angeline, Lille, Carrie and Nettie appeared in the 1870 and 1880 US Censuses, but Lille, who would have been 26, was not listed in the 1885 Minnesota Census.

      Later he was a resident of Minneapolis and a merchant. [6, 7, 8]
