    Notes 
    • Upon the return of the widow of Nathan Halladay from the disastrous trip to the west as noted in Chapter XI and the consequent breaking up of the family, Henry Adams Halladay, then about 10 or 11 years of age, was placed in the family of Dr. Tucker of Marlboro, where he remained until he went to learn the trade of a tanner at a tannery about one and one half miles from Wilmington, Vt. on the road to Brattleboro.  Having learned this trade he went to Prattsville, Greene Co., N.Y. in the Catskill Mt. region where he worked in the large tanneries of Zadock Pratt.
             Returning to Wilmington, he married Caroline Stearns and settled at West Halifax, Vt. where he, with his brother Nathan W. bought a farm and built a tannery on a branch of North River which latter they operated together until March 1839 when Henry sold his interests in Halifax to his brother, and removed during the latter part of the same year to North Adams, Mass. and was employed as superintendent of Hodge's tannery. Later he removed to Searsburg, Vt. where he had charge of a tannery, but returned to North Adams in 1845 or 1846.
             Here his wife Caroline died Nov. 15 , 1846, and he remained until 1849, when he removed to "The Glen," a village in Warren Co., N.Y. on the Hudson River 22 miles above Glens Falls.
             Here he remained five years, first as superintendent of the works and later operating the tannery in company with a man named Van Note.  He removed to Troy, N.Y. making his home there while he traveled as a salesman for several years.  During the Civil War he went to Philadelphia and was associated with his son Lucius W. until the latter's death in 1880, when he returned to Troy and thereafter made his home with his eldest son Horatio.
             He died at Troy March 18, 1890, aged 85.
             Both Henry Halladay and his wife Caroline were buried in Oakwood Cemetery, Troy, N.Y. [3]
