When about four years of age his family moved to Elmira, where he attended public school. When a young man he entered the Elmira Furniture Factory, where he has been employed for the past 16 years.

Two brothers, Fred of Barwick, Rainy River District and Percy of Kitchener and one sister, Annie (Mrs. F. Vandeventer) of Hamilton also survive. One brother George of Listowel passed away a year ago.
