Willie and Minnie Alice Henry

Posted By on January 3, 2012

Willie Henry and his wife Minnie Alice Chappell Henry. They are my great uncle and aunt. Willie Henry is one of the younger brothers of my grandfather J.E. Henry. In the 1890’s and maybe even earlier Willie traveled with Henry Bros circus. Willie was not a performer, but did work with the live stock and the front end of the show. The grand daughter Shirley Henry Biszantz gave me this photo of her grandparents. I’m waiting to meet other members of our family that are to visit Shirley in the near future.
