Henry later lived in Pennsylvania, where married Elizabeth Mittendorf (Middendorf). It is said they were married at Pottstown, Pennsylvania in 1861 or 1862, during the early part of the Civil War. Thus far, no record of their marriage has been found.
One source tells as little different story of how and where Henry and Elizabeth met. He says Henry worked on the ship Elizabeth traveled to America on. However, they did not meet until the ship docked in Baltimore. He tells us that Henry an Elizabeth were walking on the beach and happened to meet and fell in love soon after. |
