Jim was born in Morning Sun, Louisa County, Iowa. He fought in World War I, returned, was married to Mildred Jane Beauchamp. Millie was born November 26, 1887 and died October 25, 1972. She was married previously to a man named Feldman and had three sons with that marriage.

At some point during his later years, Jim was a policeman in Winfield, Iowa. He had returned to Mt. Pleasant, Iowa, after Lottie's death, and he had a stroke there in August of 1973, and died at the beginning of September. His funeral was September 3 of that year, on Labor Day.
