    [Note: Although there are a lot of other Henry Gunthers listed in the NYC Directories, it is not possible at this time to connect them to this Henry. The listings above at the "1168 2nd Ave" address link Henry to this family because it is the same address at which Henry's mother Johanna died. Also, it is known that his father Charles Gunther was a segarmaker at the time of his death.]
