He purchased 320 acres and they resided there for fifteen years. In 1850 he sold his farm and emigrated to Warren County. He arrived in October and settled in White Breast Township. Over a period of time, he entered 1200 to 1400 acres of land in Warren and Lucas counties.
In February, 1852, Rev. Joseph Howard moved onto 120 acres in Section 16 of White Breast. He built his home there and lived there until his death on February 2, 1875. The town of Newbern was laid out by Ransom Davis in 1851, an he built the first house.
