In 1826 he came with his father to Columbus, Ohio, and in 1834 settled at Dayton, Ohio, where his father and brother-in-law, Mr. James Greer, formed a partnership for the manufacture and sale of stoves. Rufus King entered into their employment in 1834 and on his father's retirement from the business in 1845 succeeded to the business with Mr. Greer until the decease of the latter in 1874 and thereafter conducted the business alone until 1884 when he closed it up and retired from active business.
