"HENRY A., born May 15, 1831; married Sarah Jane Horton, who died June 9, 1882. He practiced dentistry for many years in Oxford and then removed to Binghamton, where he also built up a large practice. He was also manager for many years while in Oxford of the Western Union Telegraph Company, at the time when the register printed the dots and dashes on long strips of paper and was read by the eye. It was on this cumbersome instrument that he received the news of the firing on Fort Sumpter. He died at the home of his brother, Charles A., on the old homestead, January 20, 1892. His children: [Son] Fred A., born December 30, 1867; now stenographer in the office of the solicitor of the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Railway Company at Minneapolis, Minn.; married Martha L. McNair, and has one son, Arthur Henry. [Daughter] Jennie Elene, twin of Fred A., married Fred L. Titchener of Binghamton; died at Cortland February 8, 1902, leaving five children."
