His father was a lawyer who owned $150,000 of real estate and $27,000 of personal property by 1860. He grew up and attended school in Cincinnati, Ohio, and his mother died sometime in the 1850s. He attended Harvard Law School in the 1860s. He travelled to Europe in 1869, and his passport application described him as 5 feet, 4 inches tall, with dark brown hair and hazel eyes.
 
He married Mary J.
