He married Clarissa Olds in OH, moved to Baraboo, WI in the late 1840s. They had a son Albert (named for his uncle) and 2 daughters (one of which married a Rev John Gillem) John appears to have been prominent and prosperous landowner in the area. His wife Clarissa was the sister of Cordelia, wife of Amos Norton (son of David Norton), also of Baraboo. He mentions his father in his biogrophy, identifying him as serving in the Army of NY in the War of 1812. I haven't been able to verify this info. I would like to hear from anyone that has a connection with this family.
