He was born lived and died in Whitpain close to Gwynedd and for many years he was one of the most conspicuous figures in the farming business and social circles of Gwynedd. He did much to improve the methods of farming planted hedges introduced the feeding of green fodder to cattle instead of grazing built a barn which was enormously large according to the usual standard and very early introduced the use of gypsum on fields. He was one of the first in Pennsylvania to introduce and breed Merino sheep and during the movement to establish the manufacture of silk he was one of its most zealous promoters. In 1791 Gov. Mifflin appointed him a justice of the peace and he continued as such until 1820 when he resigned and returned to farming and other entreprenureal pursuits. S&S/AI 7203; Sabin 71898; Rink 1148.
