He received his education in the schools of Quebec and later established himself in the insurance business. He was married in 1870 and for many years was prominent in the civic and social life of the city; was a Knight Templar and a communicant of the Church of England.

In 1913 he and his wife came west to Victoria, B.C. where they celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary two years previous to her death in 1921, after which he came to Bynum to live with his daughter.

Five children survive: Corp. Lorne Drum of the army medical corps at Esquimalt, Canada, and Arthur W. Drum, president of the A.W. Drum Loan & Insurance Company, Quebec; Mrs. Mary Dyke, North Longsdale, B.C; Mrs. C. V. Watson and Mrs. Ed. Gowan of By-num and six grandchildren.
