He received but a limited education in the primitive pine-pole school house, and December 1, 1853, married Rebecca J. Calvert, daughter of Bazil and Mary (Leatherwood) Calvert. This union was followed by the birth of nine children, seven of whom are still living: Mary, Annie, Mirian, Charles, Arrie, James M., Benjamin F. Lloyd. The mother was born in South Carolina in 1832. In 1862 he enlisted in Company A, Capt. Marino, Thirty-first Alabama regiment, under Gen. Pettus, served until the close of the war, and was with Gen. Joe E. Johnston in his famous retreat. He is one of the worthy old citizens of the county and he and wife lead the upright life of consistent Baptists.
