Individual Details

His marriage record reads, "married Tuesday morning by Rev. Samuel Robinson, Henry Rider, Brunswick Parish (Queens Co) - Miss Elizabeth Currie, Kingston Parish (King's Co)."

He is listed on the Muster Rolls of Capt Keith's Company, September 28, 1846. In 1839 Henry purchased the west half of Lot 28, New Canaan, from his father Ebenezer, and appears to have lived there most of his life.

However, later in life, he moved to Saint John NB, where he died. His widow removed to Portland, ME, where she died. There are a large number of descendants through this line.
