In 1891 & 1901 he is recorded as living in Myrtle Terrace, Acton - also true in 1906 (From Electoral Register). His occupation is variously given as mercantile clerk, railway accountant, retired RCH clerk. He apparently worked at the railyway clearing house, Euston.
He was a member of the Acton Natural History Society, and recorded and photographed many plants in the Middlesex area. He retired in 1910 and moved to Dorset. Here he recorded many different species of plants, including some rarities. His herbarium passed to the Bournemouth Natural Science Society.
He died Octover 1918 at Linden Villa, Argule Road, Swanage, Dorset.
