For a time John had an interest in and was the Dredgemaster on the Harrietville Star Dredge, the most successful of the Harrietville dredging enterprises, in around 1906. In 1919 he was part of a syndicate including F.A Wraith, D. Gow, and E. Gow who backed the discoverers of The Biplane mine in 1919. They sold out in 1920.

Dargo as he was commonly known worked for the Stockbroking firm of Byron, Moore, Day and Journeaux and he travelled all over Australia, Fiji, New Guinea and South East Asia. In 1921 he contracted malaria on a trip to Siam (now Thailand) which led to Tuberculosis from which he died in 1926.
