Notes

[MY Family.FTW]
December 24, 1982. Copied from History of North Idaho, published by Western Historical Publishing Company, 1903. Copied By R.P. Weatherly, Rt. 2 Box 65, Asotin, WA. 99402. Page 182 Noble Henry: Daniel Boone has a counterpart in the subject of this article. A noted trapper, a skillful hunter, a doughty pioneer, a veritable leader of frontiersman, it is eminently fitting to grant space in history of Nez Perces County to Noble Henry. He was born in Indiana , on October 8, 1838 the son of Joseph and Ellen (Fisher) Henry. The Father died on December 15, 1892, aged seventy eight. He built the first house in the Grande Ronde Valley in 1860, and was a pioneer in Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, Montana, Oregon, Washington, and Idaho. He was a native of Ohio and died on the Reservation. The Mother of our subject was also a native of Ohio, and her parents were Pennsylvania Dutch. Noble acquired little schooling in Michigan, but has spent much time in careful research since, and is a well informed. When nine, he settled with his father in Iowa, seventy five miles from neighbors. Later they went to the various states mentioned above and in 1860, came to Grande Ronde Valley and both took claims. Our subject held the land where union now stands and sold his relinquishment for seventy dollars. In 1861, he commenced packing Haaland in this line he was exceptionally skillful. He packed out of Lewiston for eighteen years, having a train of nearly one hundred animals, handling nineteen thousand pounds. Lewiston was a great shipping point in those days and Mr. Henry was one of the best transporters of freight in the entire country. In the seventies he settled in Asotin County, Washington and commenced to raise stock. There he remained until 1899, when he came to the reservation and settled on his allotment, the entire acreage of his family being nearly one thousand. Mr. Henry has the following brothers and sisters: Frank, in the Okanogan Country, Washington; Joseph in Stockton, California; Lorenzo, residing near Lapwai; Lorin G. in Umatilla County, Oregon; Marinda, wife of James Allen, on the John Day; Eliza wife of Mr. Brinter, at Mason City, Iowa; Mary, wife of Mr. Black in Iowa; Sarah, wife of Robert Sutton, in Okanogan County, Washington. In 1868 Mr. Henry married Tanacama, a Nez Perces Indian woman, her parents died she was very young and she was raised by a sister. She is the sister of Old Chief Jonah, now living on the the reservation, age seventy five. Mrs. Henry has one sister, Mealets wife of Jake? Maxwell who deserted he recently. To Mr and Mrs. Henry have been born nine children; Mary A., wife of Frank Broncho; Louisa, wife of Edwin Broncho; Jane, wife of William Smith, all living on their allotments on the reservation; Joseph, aged 22 who is a master carpenter, shoemaker and baker trades; John, age 20, blacksmith and engineer; Benjamin, 17, shoemaker; Frank, aged 14, and Lorin, aged nine both attending Indian school. The sons of Mr. Henry are all notable musicians and are member of a band. In fact, they have displayed great skill and talent in this line and it is to be hoped that they may seek training further to develop the latent ability.
