He was married to Miss Amanda Cox April 22, 1863. They lived on their farm in Jefferson county until the fall of 1888, at which time he moved just across the line into Leavenworth county. He was the father of eleven children all of whom were born on the old homestead. Four of the children died when quite young. He moved to Potter in October 1900, back to the farm in 1902 and again to Potter in October 1906. He suffered a severe stroke of paralysis a number of years ago from the effects of which he never perfectly recovered. Mr. Henson was an ambitious and industrious man. He was strictly honest with all his fellowmen and attended strictly to his own business. The day before dying Mr. Henson called his wife to his bedside and said to her, "I'm dying, I'm dying in the land of lillies right now." The deceased died at 7:30 a.m. January 17, 1907 at his residence in Potter. He died very easy, not making a single struggle. He knew all his children who were present at the time of his death. He leaves a devoted wife and seven children, two sisters, Mrs. Sarrah Lovelace and Mrs. Polly Elliston of Weston, and two brothers, Mr. Anderson Henson of Cummings, and Mr. Henry Henson of Potter, and other relatives and a host of friends by whom he was highly esteemed.
