Henry died after the 1860 census of Belgrade, Maine. He would have been 90 years old in 1861. No record can be found for his death. Perhaps there is a family bible record somewhere that can shed some light on this.

DIED
We shall both be
here together,
To moulder in the clay;
Yet our dust shall
here remain
Till the great
rising day.
