ByOshawa Museum

Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
Originally written, by his daughter-in-law Polly Ann Henry, the Memoir Of Rev. Thomas Henry: Christian Minister, York Pioneer, And Soldier Of 1812, was published in 1880, the year after Henry’s death at age 81. Born in Ireland, Henry became an ordained minister in 1832 and in 1840 was chosen as pastorate of the Church of Whitby which later became affiliated with the Christian Church. Never one to be idle, Thomas also became President of the Sydenham Harbour Company and became Harbour Master in 1850. Throughout his life, Henry traveled extensively attending Christian conferences and preaching. The stone house that Thomas lived in with his family still stands in Oshawa’s Lakeview Park and is managed by The Oshawa Historical Society as the Oshawa Museum. The Annotated Memoir of Rev. Thomas Henry adds valuable context using newspapers, photographs, letters and other archival sources while retaining all the character of the original memoir as published by Polly Ann Henry.
