    Dth notice in the North Otago Times and his obit in the same issue notes: "Another old identity, ripe in years, and respected by all, passed away yesterday morning at the age of 78. Mr James Henderson came to Port Chalmers 18 years ago in the Wild Deer and has resided in this district every since. He was a native of the Bridge of Allan, Stirlingshire, and previous to coming to the colony was well known in the parishes of Carnwath and Lesmahagow, Lanarkshire, where he resided for many years. He has enriched the colony by the fact that eleven sons and daughters are settled in New Zealand, and their offspring and their children's offspring add considerably to our industrious population. His grand-children alone number nearly 80, and the tree has therefore borne many branches. Nine of his children are settled in this district, and are well known, one resides in Timaru (this is James), and another (Mr David Henderson) is settled in the North Island. The latter was a well known settler of Oamaru in his early days. Mr Henderson Senr, made himself respected by all with whom he came into contact, and the regret at his death will be widespread and sincere. He leaves a widow to mourn her loss. Some time ago Mr Henderson met with an accident at Ngapara while on a visit to his son there. The shock to the system of one so advanced in years had evidently been severe, for although he seemingly was mending, yet he never quite recovered, and on Tues morning had an apoplectic seizure, from which he eventually died. The funeral will leave his late residence, Coquet St, to-morrow , at 2:30pm, for the Oamaru Cem.

"In the midst of life we are in death." Also James Henderson, died at Oamaru, 19 August 1892, aged 78 years. Also Amelia Miller Henderson died 29 April 1894, aged 78 years
