He gained pastoral experience working in Taabinga before becoming an overseer on the Darling Downs. By 1869 he had purchased Northampton Downs and Welford Downs in Barcoo but sold some of his property to buy Terrick station. His final purchase was the Venture property in the South Gregory area of Queensland in 1877.
