Notes:

[R57.1]

I have not been able to find his wife's name.
buried in Historic Congressional cemetery, Washington DC [Why? Was he in Congress?]

--
A message on the Washington DC mail-list says that the 1827 Washington DC directory shows him
as a blacksmith on Virginia Avenue between 3rd and 4th.

The message also gives information about the settlement of his estate.

--
On the 1850 census hs is living with Mary, Malinda, and Archabel. Presumably they are his children, and his wife has already died.

He may have had a son Thomas c1808 who moved to Baltimore Co MD.
Genforum message 52 says he had a son James and a daughter Rachel.
