    • Rev. Henry Flory

      Rev. Henry Flory, one of the most useful men of Richland township, Greene county, Indiana, is both a farmer and a minister, a man who is vigilant in regard to the moral uplift of his community. He was born February 26, 1852, and was ten years old when his family brought him to Greene county from Wayne county, Ohio. After attending the common schools he began to hire out when only eleven years old, and continued to work by the month on various farms until he was married; then he rented a farm which he worked for several years, having purchased his present farm of eighty acres in Richland township in 1902. His marriage occurred in 1872 to Mary Ann Shertzer, who was raised in the community where the subject now lives. She is the daughter of William and Elizabeth (Black) Shertzer, both natives of Pennsylvania, who came to Greene county, Indiana, in 1856, settling in Richland township, where they farmed. William Shertzer was three times married, first to Elizabeth Bowers, who died, leaving one child. John, living at Bloomfield, Indiana; his second wife was Elizabeth Black, and seven children were born to this union, namely: Ellen, who lives in Richland township, Greene county, the wife of Franklin Chipman; Mary Ann, wife of the subject of this sketch; Samuel, who lives in Bloomfield; William, who lives in Richalnd township; Ida, the wife of Wilson Trent, living in Highland township; Margaret lives in the state of Washington, the wife of William Pope; David also lives in the state of Washington.

      Henry Flory is the son of Noah and Mariah (Miller) Flory, both natives of Pennsylvania, who came to Ohio with their parents while children. There they grew up and married. The grandfather of the subject, who was also named Noah Flory, died in Ohio. The subject's father came to Indiana in 1863 and settled in Richland township, Greene county. He was a school teacher and worked on a farm between terms. He was also a cooper by trade. He and his wife were members of the Church of God and he was a Democrat. They had thirteen children, namely: Catherine, the wife of James Quakenbush, who lives in Kansas; John lives in Richland township, Greene county; Henry, the subject of this sketch; Elizabeth, the wife of William Stalcup, lives near the old home in Greene county; Mary, Caroline, Mariah and Ellen, all deceased; Jacob lives in Richland township; Samuel lives on a farm in Illinois; Susan, the wife of Elsworth Watson, lives in Richland township; William Thomas also lives there.
