He enlisted in Company K of the 7th Michigan Volunteers on 29 January 1864 at Monroe, Michigan for a term of three years. The company was mustered at Detroit on the following day.

By 1865 he had migrated to Kankakee, Illinois where on 28 November of that year he married Eugenie Archambault. The 1876 Directory for Kankakee lists him as living on Washington Avenue and employed as a clerk. Seven of their eight children were born in Kankakee. In late 1884 or early 1885 they migrated to Minnesota where their eighth child was born on 18 August 1885 at Ghent, Lyon County.
