In the 1870 census he is working on a farm with Jos Beal. In the 1880 census, he is a cabinet maker and wife is Emma. IN 1900 he is a contractor with wife Hannah. In 1910 he had moved to Murphy, NC, but they have no record of his death in 1915. Since he lived in Rogerville longer than anywhere, I thought an obituary could tell me where he died.
