His grave is one of 8 or 9 in the Big Grove Cemetery just west of Oakland, Iowa. He was married to a Mary or Maria, maiden name may have been Carter. He had at least two sons, John (b. abt 1834) and William (b. abt 1837), who both served in Company D of the 1st Colorado Cavalry, and at least one daughter, Nancy Elizabeth (b. 28 Oct 1831, d. 7 Mar 1880, md. A.N. Halladay). The family had lived in Porter County, Indiana in 1850 for the census. Any additional information that anyone has would be deeply appreciated.
