Henry Calvin Russell

Some records show Henry's death date to be 1869

Information from Tammy Hastings

From Harold Russell: "I have a few pages copied from the family Bible which mentions Mary Elizabeth, born December ___, was married on 6 March 1844, and died 23 October 1844. There is a Henry C. Born 13 July 1855, but there is no mention of Henry J. or a Washington listed."

This Henry C. is Henry Calvin Russell Jr., and he shows up later living in Marshall, Alabama near to my 2nd GGF. For some reason he shows as Henry J. Russell in several census records. I have corrected this error in the tree accordingly. I believe that the "J" in the record was transcribed incorrectly and is indicative that he was a Jr. I will also be working to add these sources to the profile soon.

I will additionally add this information from his father John's profile..... Pamela D. Meier, 1617 Montana Trail, Plano, Texas 75023: March 1992: sent copy of Bible record from Bible belonging to Margaret J. Davis who married Thomas N. Portegal (Margaret J. Davis is the daughter of Rhoda J. Russell and James H. Davis, and was a granddaughter of John and Rhoda Russell)
