He made several changes and moved around considerably untitil about 1850, when he purchased the farm in Marple township upon which he lived until death, and which is now the home of his son, Leonard S. During the years prior to 1850 he learned the miller's trade, working in different localities, then became a butcher, then for two years rented and worked a farm in Chester county. The farm in Marple township consisted of forty acres, lying along the Springfield road, and was purchased by William Thomas from Philip Welling. - A history of Delaware County, Pennsylvania, and its people, Vol. 3 by John Woolf Jordan, p. 867
