In 1820 he purchased a small place between the two villages in Brattlesboro, where he resided for ten years, and where five of his children were born.

In the fall of 1835 he bought the hotel known as the "Barber House," of Woodstock, where he lived till the death of his father in the spring of 1847. He gave up the house to his son and went to Brattlesboro to care for his father's estate and a sister who was blind. He sold his father's place after a little time and returned to Woodstock in the winter of 1849, buying a private house, where he lived till the time of his death in 1872. For a few years after his return to Woodstock he employed his time in farming and looking after his property. For many years he was proprietor of the Woodstock stages. He was much respected in the Community where he resided. He died 31 Dec 1872; resided Brattlesboro, Cavendish and Woodstock, Vermont.
