a minister in the Methodist Episcopal Church South, was born in Buncombe County, N.C., November 23, 1826. He embraced religion at an early age; and in 1849 was licensed to preach, and received into the Indian Mission Conference. He began his labors among the Indians on the Shawnee and Delaware Mission under great disadvantages. On the change of boundaries he became a member of the St. Louis Conference, in which he ended his days in 1859 or 1860. See Minutes of Annual Conferences of the M.E. Church South, 1860, page 205.
