In 1901, Henry is noted as living at the home of Foreman Maltster William Cree and his wife Sarah Ann. He's noted as working as a Maltster, and is likely to have been living with his future in-laws, although there's no sign of his future wife, Sarah Jane 'Ginny' Cree who he would marry 2 years later.

Henry and Sarah are known to have had at least one child, and are believed to have kept a fish shop business in Newark, Nottinghamshire.
