From the Bible of William Howard Henry, presented to him by Mattie Henry
December 25, 1935.

Mr. W. H. Henry and Ellen McCarty were married at Clarksville, Tennessee
July 3, 1915.
child-Jane Elizabeth Henry born May 1, 1916 at Clarksville, Tennessee.
Ellen Henry, wife of W. H. died 1917 at Cincinnatti, Oh.

Mr W. H. Henry of Florence, Alabama and Miss Mattie L. Vessel of Florence,
Alabama were married at Florence, Alabama on the 25th of May 1918 by Floyd
E. Olive witnesses Other or Arther James and James Hale.

W. H. Henry was a half-brother to my grandmother, Lillie May Estes.
He was born in 1894 possibly in Coffee County, my grandmother was born 1900,
place unknown. Their mother died in 1902, and they were placed in an
orphanage. I don't know how he ended up in Montgomery County. Hopefully if
someone recognizes these names, we can help each other.
