Biography

[edit]

He was born in Geneva, New York. He moved to Wisconsin in 1850. He soon joined the Republican Party. He served as a member of the Wisconsin State Assembly, from Whitewater, Wisconsin, in 1858,[1] and was elected lieutenant governor at the end of the next year, a position in which he served from 1860 until 1862. In 1864, he moved to New York City, where he held jobs first as a weigher in the customs house, then as a harbor master, then as chief clerk in the seizure room. He died in 1890, from a stroke, in Brooklyn.[2][3][4]
