He was a carpenter by trade. There are two versions of how he died. Both attribute his death to a tornado. One version holds that he was struck by lightning and the other version holds that he was impaled by a piece of lumber flying in the tornado winds. Both versions are plausible. He supposedly died in McLennan Co., TX near Waco. I have been unable to locate his grave in the records of McLennan or Hill County, Texas. He grave perhaps is not marked.
