Here is Henry in the 1850 Census with his wife Lydia and their two boys:

Here he is again in the 1870 Census with his second and third wives, Temperance and Mary Ann. Lydia had passed away by this time:

To some, these two Henrys would not seem to be the same man, however, they in fact are. He life changed dramatically between these two censuses in a way he would never had dreamed in 1850. It is so interesting to see him in the snapshots of his life though the use of census records.
