    He resided in Sullivan Township, Tioga County, Pennsylvania 1908.   C. Henry (names reversed) was a farmer. Henry was born on the North Road in Sullivan Township on the favm where his grandparents, Henry Card and Sarah Fish had built their house about 1850. He was the first child of Frank Beardslee and Mattie Card. He belonged to Columbia Grange and various farm organizations. He later joined the East Sullivan Grange. After World War I, Henry and Carrie bought the farm on Sanitarium Hill in 1914. This house had originally been built by my ancestors, Joe Holly and Mary Wood, and  had more recently been owned by my great grandparents, Harvey Tice and Cora Smith. My grandfather, Lee Tice, had left his initials carved in a door, and Carrie berated the Tices all the time she lived in that house for using too many nails. She should probably have been berating my father's mother's ancestors instead. When Henry was little he had scarlet fever and that affected his eyes so that he had poor vision all his life. In 1937, his brother in law, Jim McConnell asked Henry and Carrie to move down to the Bailey Farm which Jim owned and on which he had a large chicken/dairy farm. Henry served as manager of all the JaMac Farms until his retirement in 1956. Carrie managed the chicken farm operations, and Henry managed the crops and dairy.  In 1946, they moved up the road to the Wells Ashley or Longwell Farm because the barn at Bailey place had burned. In their elder years, Henry and Carrie lived in the house that had been the Caroline McConnell/ Alva Gray home. They had a collie dog named Dusty who accompanied Henry on all his travels around the neighborhood.
