Henry married Jennie Goodel Bloss, and they moved with younger brother John to Nebraska, taking the train and then covered wagon to get there. Henry and family then moved to Colorado around 1887. Oldest son James Frank died there in 1888. Henry obtained a land grant on October 27, 1891, from the Denver Land Office (a Preemption Act entry in Register of Cash Receipts, and a Timber Culture Act in Register of Timber Culture Entries). It was for 160 acres in Lincoln County, CO. His name on that document was Henry Barneycassel. 1900 census El Paso, CO shows him married but living alone. Don't know where the family lived.
In 1915, Henry and Jennie moved to Finchville, Nebraska, probably to be near brother John. They were in Colorado in early 1915, though, because Jennie received a manuscript from her maiden aunt concerning the Bloss genealogy, and it was sent to Deer Trail, Colorado.
According to letter from Frona, Henry always signed his name Henry Barnacassel, and his obituary called him Henry Barnacastle. Online source says the obituary in the Arnold Sentinal was published 7/11/1923 - if correct he died in July instead of February.
Henry and Jennie are buried next to brother John and family. We're not sure if Leon's body was moved from Colorado to this plot, he purchased the plot. Also, it is said that there are more than one infant buried here, no name and in unmarked graves.
