I have two family stories on how Henry died. The first states that Henry eventually died from complications of his injuries during service in the Spanish-American war (although pension records erroneously listed him in service during the American Civil War). The other is that he died from food poisoning. Everyone agrees, however, that Henry was a super-strict Quaker minister. I am also told that Henry lived next door to Anna Mae and her parents during and after the death of his first wife (her name and information are not yet known to me, but I am told that they had a daughter named Lillian who died in infancy (no documentation as yet)--that my mother might have been named for that child). Rebel that I am, I was stunned to learn about him in 2002 and to find that he was a Quaker minister!
