About 1901 he with his father and two brothers, John and Bern, settled on the school section a mile and a half northwest of town, some of which he still owns. After coming to Carnegie for a time he dealt in real estate and at one time he and a brother owned and operated a large wagon yard where the Farmers Co-op elevator and gin now stands.

He was married to Mrs. Jessie Thornton of Anadarko in 1939. Survivors include his wife at home, one brother, John Bacon in California, five step-sons, Preston, Elvin, R.B., Jesse and Roy Thornton, as well as other relatives.
