He went from Pennsylvania to Ohio in the spring of 1801, and he entered a patent for land in May of that year and returned to Pennsylvania. He received the patent dated 20 Apr 1802, signed by President Thomas Jefferson and Secretary of State James Madison, for land in Pickaway County. He returned to Ohio in 1806, presumably shortly after he married Elizabeth Huy. The first frame building erected in Salt Creek Township was the dwelling of John Shoemaker located within the villiage of Tarlton.7
