He spent 29 years living in Cadney, and was a renowned botanist, while walking around Cadney and nearby Howsham, he would always carry a special notebook for collecting plant specimens and recording all the details, where he collected the specimen from, what the soil was like, what time of year it was etc. He had a collection of over 8,000 plant specimens.
