Apparently, the studio in Red Jacket, MI, lasted only from about 1885 to 1890. He was in partnership with A L Wortley for at least part of that period.

After that, a new studio in Laurium, MI, was opened in July of 1891. No information was found indicating there was ever another studio at a different location. The 1912 city directory also mentions a partnership with John Stolt. No information has been found to indicate how long this partnership lasted.
