Notes |
- He moved with his family to Shirley, MA in 1846, but, after the death of his mother in 1857, returned to Lowell.
From 1867 to 1879 he was in the wholesale provision business in Lowell and during the twenty years following was manager of the Criterion Knitting Co., and largely interested in real estate in Lowell. During this time he served eight years in the board of alderman of the City of Lowell. He is a member of St. Anne's Church, and a thirty-second degree Mason. His home is at 942 Middlesex Ave., Lowell.
In Aug of 1884 he was reported missing by his friends in NYC. He was found at the Fifth Avenue Hotel in NYC. He seemed to have left his friends at "Paul Bauer's" walking out the back door and proceeded to enjoy himself in NYC. When he had "enough fun" he turned up at his hotel. (The Brooklyn Union, Brooklyn, NY, 2 Aug 1884, page 4.)
In 1920 he owned a tree nursery
