Claflin served as a lawmaker in Congress for fifteen years during a crucial period in American history. His dedication to public service earned him respect among his peers and constituents alike. As an industrialist, he played a significant role in shaping the country's economic landscape during the nineteenth century.

A devout Methodist, he actively supported religious causes and engaged in philanthropic activities that aimed to improve society.
