in Hamilton for many years.
He married Mildred Brodie on August 25, 1928 in Canton, Lewis Co, Missouri
and to
this union was born eight children all of whom are still living except
for two,
Violet who died at the age in 1936 in Quincy, Adams Co, Illinois,
and Marilyn who died in 1996 from an automobile accident near Flagstaff,

Mildred ran a resteraunt between Hamilton and Nauvoo called the Mississippi
Youth Center and
later they built another resteraunt right next door to that one called
the Mississippi Bar-B-Que.
The food was excellent. They also had a grocery store on Main Street
beside the Barbershop
They moved to Salt Lake City, Utah where they ran several resteraunts
