Biography of Henry P. Stroh.  Pages 938 / 939.  History of De Kalb County, 
Indiana.  Inter-State Publishing Company, Chicago, 1885.

Henry P. Stroh, son of William and Sarah (Husselman) Stroh, was born on the 
old homestead in Union Township, May 9, 1849.  He was reared on the farm, 
receiving a common-school education, completing it at the Northwestern 
College, Plainsfield, Ill.  After leaving school he assisted his father on 
the farm one season, and then was employed as brakeman on the Toledo, Wabash 
& Western Railroad four months.  He was then transferred to the Lafayette, 
Muncie & Bloomington Road and ran a construction train nine months, when he 
returned to the Wabash Road and remained till the following summer. Typhoid 
fever then claimed him as its victim, and for several weeks he was unable to 
work.  After his recovery he went to Texas and thence to Montana. He 
subsequently returned to Indiana, and April 12, 1883, was married to 
Catherine St. Clair, daughter of John and Catherine St. Clair. After his 
marriage he settled on a farm of forty acres in Union Township, where he has 
a pleasant home and is successfully engaged in agricultural pursuits and 
stock-raising, making a specialty of Norman and Clydesdale horses.
