I can't find him in the 1782 or 1783 census records, but he is listed in 1785. Don't know when he went to Georgia (between 1785 and 1794). 1782 Census shows Henry as head of a family of six.
William Parsons (husband of Polly), Benjamin Watkins (husband of Sarah) and
Daniel Bates (husband of Elizabeth) are all shown in the 1785 Census.
