After her husbands early and tragic death she remained on the home place. She lived on this farm 71 years. Henrietta did a lot of charity work for her church and was always willing to lend a hand to anyone in need. She helped organize the Goehner Homemakers Club in 1919, and was a charter member. With the help of her daughter, they were able to obtain the first female County Agent in Seward County.
