HENRYThis surname is derived from the name of an ancestor. 'the son of Henry'; v. Harries. Henryson is extremely rare, the early change into Henderson having become alike popular and permanent.
ROBERT HENRY (1815-1880)bert Henry married Jane Hall March 12, 1842 at Bethany Chapel in Manchester, Jamaica. At the time they were living in Mile Gully district. I believe they are my great great grandparents. On their marriage record Robert is listed as a labourer but he later became a policeman. He died November 27 1880 at the Parochial Hospital in St. Ann. Jane died a few years later in 1901 in Higgin Town , St Ann's Bay, St. Ann. Henry Lynch was the informant on her death registration.
Ellen "Elsie" jane henry (1844-?)On September 8, 1844 Robert and Jane had a daughter Ellen Jane a.k.a. "Elsie Jane". Elsie was born in Dry Harbour, Saint Ann where she became the partner of my great grandfather Robert Redway and they raised their family there. It appears that neither Elsie or Robert ever married. You can read more on their family on the REDWAY page.

She was the daughter of George McNaughton and married Charles Septimus Edwards on February 20, 1902 in Duncans, Trelwany. Florella and Charles (who seems to have gone by Septimus) had 15 children.
