On 31 May 1820 took out insurance cover of £400 on household goods at his dwelling, 37 Argyle Street. At the same time a separate policy was issued in the names of John Gillett and Robert Atkins, cabinet maker and upholsterer at the same address. This covered stock, utensils and goods to the value of £800 and china and glass for an additional £200.
