Your Henry was brother to my gggrandfather James.
I have found the 1860 census listing your Henry as follows.
Jackson Twp, Monroe Pa 13 July 1860 PO Fennersville, Pg 93 Household #565-600
Henry 51 M Laborer Born Pa
Susannah 49 F Born Pa
Andrew 25 M Laborer Pa
Andrew was the brother to my Julianna who married Adam D Christman.I don't know when Andrew left Pa but I do have a record for him in Ashland Wisc WI 1890 Vets Sch Page 2ED149 WIo9618272Image1033
Enlisted June 13 1861 Camp FR 36th INF Reg, Pa.Discharge Disability Dec 29th 1863.In Wisc he married a Mary (Unknown) I only know of one child so far for them, Rena Keiper.In The 1880 census they are found living in Minnesota, Minneapolis.In 1878 my Barbara Christman married to Robert J. Youngkin. They came to Minnesota and lived with her uncle Andrew Keiper and his wife Mary for a time. Then Andrew is found again in Wisc in the Ashland Directory years 1890-1-2.Mary is not listed but the daughter is.In the surrounding area are a couple of Keiper names Micheal is one can't think of the other, listed as land owners in other places.If I can find it I will post it.They were a moving bunch of Keipers.I would think he came with other family members, who knows. I was surprised to find them in Wisc.I got this info fron the Minnesota census record place of biirth for his wife and daughter was listed as Wisc.
