He was a cultured man, speaking French, Italian, Spanish, and German, and was well read in Latin, Greek, and Hebrew.

In 1823, with his wife, he went to Europe, where they remained several years, and upon their return to the United States, in 1827, they settled in Cincinnati, where they became interested in every movement calculated to advance and improve the condition of their adopted city. He was unanimously chosen one of the City Fathers of Cincinnati, and in 1833 or 1834 was elected to a seat in the State Senate of Ohio.
