The tombstone says 1888. The death certificate says May 1889, at 23 years old. The 1900 Census says Aug 1889. The census was collected in June and shows him as 10. If he had been born in May, it would have said 11. It is likely that the 1900 Census shows the correct date.
Henry died from typhoid fever.
Henry was working as a salesman when he passed away at 23 years old.
