  • Notes 
    • Henry, an only child, came to the United States from Germany with his parents in 1849. They landed in Galveston and settled in La Grange. He and his father enlisted in same company of Oswald Battalion, Confederate Army on November 4, 1861. Since he was too young to fight, Henry served as a drummer boy. He was discharged at San Jacinto on April 30, 1862.

      After the war, he assisted his parents with their general merchandise business. He continued the business with his mother after his father died. He married Lieschen in 1874, spending many evenings with his family. He would play the cornet and his wife the piano. He was bandmaster of the La Grange Band for many years. His hobbies were gardening and duck hunting. While on a hunting trip he contracted a severe cold, as he was not fully recovered from a case of the mumps. He died shortly afterwards.
