Henry

Henry, three miles east of Red Oak in northern Ellis County, developed in the late 1880s; it served as a community center for area farmers. Its post office opened in 1896 and closed in 1903. The community was not named on the 1936 county highway map.

Adapted from the official Handbook of Texas, a state encyclopedia developed by the Texas State Historical Association (TSHA). It is an authoritative source of trusted historical records.
