WILLIAM TAYLOR HENTON (Miltons; Evan7; Sarah6 Tallman;
Dinah' Boone; Benjamin"; George3), born 4 Sept., 1848, in Cincinnati, 0. Married 13 June, 1881, in Nebraska, Ida Ryan, formerly of Meads-vile, Pa. (b. 1861).
William Henton's parents moved to Indiana before he was a year old and died while he was quite young. At the age of about 21 he went to the territory of Nebraska, to what is now Red Willow County, almost
the center of the great American desert. The years between 1873, and 1879, were mostly spent by him in farming, fighting grasshoppers, hunting buffalo for their pelts, and in the intervals freighting between Sidney, Neb., and the Black Hills. In the spring of 1875, when on the verge of starvation, as Mr. Henton himself expressed it, he set out on foot across a wild, trackless country for North Platte City, 110 miles northward, in
search of work. Here he joined a government expedition as teamster and assisted in building Fort Sheridan on the site of the Spotted Tail Indian Agency, on the boundary between Nebraska and Dakota. In
1879, Mr. Henton settled down on a farm near Danbury, Neb., which he
had homesteaded at an earlier date, and where he now (1904) lives with his family. The land has been added to until the property is a handsome
one, abundant success having attended the owner's business of farming and stock-raising. Mr. Henton was twice elected County Treasurer.
