Biographical History
Natchez, Mississippi, cotton planter, merchant, cotton factor, financier, and banker. Born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, before 1790, he came to Adams County around 1805. He participated in the Battle of New Orleans, the last general assembly of the Mississippi Territory, and the constitutional convention for the new state. Between 1828 and 1835 he attempted an unsuccessful political career. He was associated prominently with four banks at Natchez (1824-1840), but lost most of his fortune in 1841 and died at Lexington, Kentucky, in 1849.
