His father was from Vermont and his mother, a native of Nova Scotia, Canada, came to Ohio from Boston, Massachusetts, with her family.

He was promoted through the ranks and was made on officer, a lieutenant, in November 1862 and left the Army in July 1865 as a captain. He was wounded twice in battle, was "twice breveted for gallant and meritorious conduct" and was promoted seven times.
