He was brought up to farming pursuits in the old country, and came to Tasmania in 1854 in the ship "Kingston". He immediately took up land in the Huon district, and at the present time has about 8 acres down in orchard. The homestead commands an uninterrupted view of the river and district, and is situated on one of the healthiest spots in the Huon.
