J. E. Henry Circus
Posted By thecircusblog on September 28, 2012
An interesting story about James Edward Henry. Some say this photo was taken in 1913, others 1908. Here is the interesting part… my grandfather took under his wing six Mexicans that were all musicians, just a coincidence mind you. The dates were between 1909-1911. It was said by many members of my family that they were deserters from Pancho Viva’s Army. I have no idea if the band in this photo are one and the same. The elephant was named Gypsy, she also was called Gyp.
