Hismother was remarried a year later, which took some of the economicpressure off the boy. James was sometimes called 'Big Jimmy' by hisfamily, but was usually 'Jim'. In 1910, according to the census, James was working at the foundry as acoremaker. He married Anna Jeannette La Velle on October 4th, 1911 inJeanette, PA. He was almost 24 and she was 22. [She was born on the 8thof December, 1888, the first baby born in the town of Jeannette after itwas formed] The 1920 Census shows Jim's growing family living near his mother [theyare on the same census page].

Meanwhile, Jim was hired by Westinghouse Airbrake, where he became ajourneyman coremaker. When the occasional layoffs came, he would go backto mining. He retired from Westinghouse in 1952. Jim was six feet tall, broad shouldered, strong and usually quiet. Hewas strict with his children, using a belt for corporal punishment - onboth boys and girls. He joined the Eagles Lodge in Jeannette, walkingthere every afternoon, even when he lived miles away. He liked to fishand was a good dancer, especially enjoying the polka.
