Henry lived his life in Limerick, and attended the Limerick Academy. By 1860, he had become a school teacher. After being mustered out of the 27th Maine on 17 July 1863, he returned home to Limerick, and died there only 13 days later. No cause of death is yet known, but it may be mentioned on the pension application filed by his father on 7 July 1879 (the pension was not certified, so Aaron did not receive compensation). Henry did not marry. |
