Little is known about my great grandfather. If anyone has information in regards to his siblings, parents or anyone doing research on the Beider's please contact me at [email protected]

Henry Beider was born in 1862 and married Lena Hoffmann (daughter of Joseph Hoffmann and Margaret Becker) on 30 December 1883. Henry died of pneumonia on 11 August 1893.

Information just received September 12, 2008
Death Certificate states that Henry was born in New York City and lived there his entire life. It also states his father was Philip * and mother was Mary both born in Germany.

Henry Beider and his wife Lena Hoffmann had three children:

Phillip Joseph Beider Sr. -
8 Oct 1884 - 15 Nov 1959

Henry Joseph Beider -
11 July 1887- ?

Anna Bertha Beider -
3 August 1889 - 9 Jan 1938

Plot 2
Row 15
Grave 10

* = I believe the father of Henry to be Felix. Either his father had two names or it was a mistake on his death certificate. I base this on DNA matching of the descendants of Henry with Caroline Beider and to the fact that all other references to the father have been Felix. Thus I am confident that the fathers name was Felix. It could also be that the name of his oldest child was given for the name of father since his oldest sons name is Philip. For several years I questioned this but after DNA proof and seeing the 1870 Census and directories, and other proof I am convinced now that Felix was the name of Henry's father since I know who Henry's siblings were and in all their paperwork Felix is listed as the father.
