Henry County was formed in 1822. It was named for Patriot Patrick Henry, governor of Virginia.
“The author presents to the public two volumes, each containing more than
600 pages, which exhaustively set forth the military and political history of Henry
County. The first volume, with the exception of Chapter I, relates exclusively
to the military history of the county, and Volume II, in addition to military and
political information, contains a carefully prepared account of the early civil
history of the county, its townships, towns, villages, banks, newspapers and much
valuable statistical information relating to the growth and development of the
community, all of which is accompanied by biographical mention of early
settlers, leading families and prominent actors in the county, past and present.
“The author has, in the course of his investigations, at great pains and large
expense, collected sufficient valuable material relating to the industrial, educational,
religious, literary, benevolent and social life of the county, also biographical, neigh-
borhood, village and family history, together with other matter relating to the
county's natural and physical history, to fill two additional volumes of equal
size with these now published. Some of the most interesting data collected relates
to the movement westward from Henry County during the excitement following
the discovery of gold in California and Pike's Peak, Colorado, reference !o which
is made on pages 163 and 529 and possibly elsewhere in this History. The author
regrets that he has been compelled to drop this feature "of the work, but all of
the matters above referred to will be preserved for future publication by the author
or someone to come after him.
“It has been the steadfast purpose of the author and
his associates in the work
to provide an accurate, impartial and comprehensive account of the part taken by
the county in military affairs from the days of the Mexican War through the
Spanish- American War and the Philippine Insurrection, together with such infor-
mation as is obtainable about the soldiers of the Revolution and the War of 1812-15,
who became early settlers in the county, all of whom have long since passed away.
This matter precedes the political and civil history of the county and is the distinc-
tive feature of the work which causes these volumes to be appropriately designated
"Military Edition."
