    3. John, I took a quick look at the 1915 Louisa County census cards microfilm, and found the following Hendersons: Cora, S. M., James, Mable, Mary J., Susanna, Richard, Susan Olive, Tracy, Grace. If any of those names interest you, let me know and I will obtain copies of the microfilm for you, or type and send E-mail. (Copies cost 25 cents, each). Also, looked in the Portrait and Biographical Album of 1889, and found information on Eli Henderson on page 364, in a column about Peter Reisch. "in the year 1882, in Letts, Iowa, his (Reisch's) marriage with Mrs. Mary Henderson was celebrated. She was the widow of Eli Henderson, a native of Ohio, and a son of Edward and margaret Henderson, also of that State, who emigrated to Indiana in 1848, settling upon a farm, where the death of both parents occurred some years ago. In 1851, Mr. Henderson came to Louisa County, Iowa, where he engaged in farming, and three years later was united in marriage. Four children were born of the union, three of whom are now living: Ella died in 1879, at the age of twenty-one years; Clara, now Mrs. Wilson, resides in Concord Township; Nora and Ollie are both at home. Mr.Henderson died" (sorry, that next few words were on the next page, and in my haste, forgot to write it down. Didn't need anything else on the next page, as it reverts back to the Reisch's family.)
