Biography

Henry Clay was born in Boston, Massachusetts, in 1834, one of four sons born to Jeremiah and Louisa (Scott) Lord. He moved to Malden, Mass., with his family before 1850.[1]

When he was 26 years old, Henry enlisted to serve in the Civil War. He mustered in as a Private in Company C of the Massachusetts 13th Infantry on July 16, 1861. He was wounded in the hip[2] during the 2nd Battle of Bull Run in Virginia, and was discharged due to those injuries on November 26, 1862.[3]

After the war, he married Katherine Holland, daughter of Daniel and Mary Holland, in 1865. They lived in Malden, where they had 1 daughter.[4] Because of the wounds Henry received on the battlefield, physical work was difficult. He worked as a coal dealer (1880).[5]

Henry died in 1912, at the age of 77 years.[6] He is buried in the Forest Dale Cemetery in Malden with his wife and daughter.[7]
