Notes |
- 1. Henry and Elizabeth are buried in the Caudill Cemetery, Morehead, KY (N 38° 10.080' W 83° 26.506'). Henry's grandson, Kelly Caudill, relates that Henry's father died young, so he took over as head of the family and thus married later for his time. While visiting the DeBoard family, Henry saw a red-headed daughter spinning at the spinning wheel. He went home and wrote her a letter proposing marriage and on his next trip married her. What a courtship. Henry had a fine farm and being an excellent craftsman he set out to build a home. Hand planing the lumber he built it himself. Two of his children, Stephen and David, were born during the house building stage. He was a very calm and serious man.
