bullet  General Notes:

Henry, in the year 1815 at the age of eleven years, with his father, mother, youngest brother and sister moved to Wayne County, Ohio. Although still a boy he was busily engaged in helping clear the land of what is now probably one of the finest farms in northern Ohio, the Ohio Experimental Farm.
He was married to Susannah Franz, Aug. 17, 1825, who was born in February 1805, and also of Wayne County, Ohio.
They first settled one mile south of Wooster, Ohio where they lived a few years until they moved to Wayne township in the Killbuck Valley where they settled in the wild woods and cleared a farm on which they resided for about 28 years. They then purchased a farm on Clear Creek on which they lived until their removal to Huntington County, Indiana, in the autumn of 1864 on the farm now owned by O. E. Johnson.
