He was living next door to his parents in 1870 in Frankstown.

He was buried in the Geeseytown Cemetery on 28 Feb. 1910, so probably di ed about 2-3 days earlier.

("Mc Farland Funeral Home, Hollidaysburg, abstacted from account books, 1 837-1932" B.C.G.S., Altoona, Pa., 1986, p. 123.)

He was married in 1864 (date from 1910 census) to Mary Angeline Hershberg er (b. 26 May 1840 or 42, Frankstown d. 17 Apr 1920, Frankstown, the daug hter of Isaac and Isabella (Ramage) Hershberger.

(State of PA Death Certificate, Reg. Dist. 237, Primary Reg. Dis t. 2191, File #43152, Mary Angeline Ling, 17 April 1920.)

Note: Mary's birth is given as May 26, 1842; however, she is listed as a ge 9 on the 1850 census, and is presumedly the female under 10 listed on t he 1840 census, therefore probably born May 26, 1840.

In the estate account of her mother (1873) Mary is called "Mary wife of He nry Linn (sic)."

Henry and Mary had no children. In 1920 Mary, then widowed, was living wi th her husband's niece, Ida (Cartwright) Endress in Frankstown.
