It appears many of us may have had Henry Band's Death date incorrect. If you read Julia Ann Cole's Obituary, Henry had died a number of years before she moved to Forest City Iowa in 1887, as she had stayed a number of years in Nebraska after his death before moving to Forest City. I did find what appears to be his grave in St. Olaf's in Clayton County, Iowa showing a death date of 12 Sep 1864, with a life of 60 years, 4 months, and 7 days, which would give him a birthday of 5 May 1804. The Grave can be seen at: https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/51451206/henry-clark This seems to match Julia Ann Cole's Obituary. The Obituary States(I have a screen capture, from newspapers.com before I let my subscription expire): Forest City, Iowa, July 27 -- One of the oldest persons in north Iowa, Mr.s Anna Cole-Clark, died at her home here, aged 101. She was the wife of the late George B. Clark (Name typo or change due to having a Jr?), whom she wed in 1830, and with whom she moved to Clayton county in 1856, and shortly after her husband died. Mrs. Clark lived a number of years in Nebraska and in 1887 came to this city, where she had resided since. It then mentions all of the children except Isaac Clark and Salem Clark who moved to Billings, MT living in Forest City at the time of her death.
