Notes
a. Note:   According to Henry's great-granddaughter Laura Catherine Manning, she remembers hearing a story about when Henry and Charity when they first got married and set up housekeeping.
  They moved into a one room cabin, it had a dirt floor and a large open fireplace, they took some boards and built up a square box in the corner, then filled it with dried leaves, and covered it with a quilt made from ticking, this was their bed. They had one iron skillet and one iron pot, Charity told of how she had to fix the cornbread, then fry the meat, then fry the potatoes, or whatever else they were having, with only one skillet getting a meal ready took some time. They had a few dishes, blankets, a table and a couple of chairs given to them by relatives.
  After several years passed they ordered their first real stove from Sears & Roebuck, it arrived by train to Leon, in Carter County, they took a horse and wagon to pick it up.
  With lots of hard work and determination Henry and Charity made a good living, they acquired many acres of land, and then gave each child enough land to each have a large farm.
