Heinrich Konrad Dietrich "Henry" Behling

This man seemed to have had a very interesting life just by looking at this photo. His clothing looks of high class and seemed that he was a very intelligent man for his age at the time when the photo was taken.

Henry was my great grandfather's oldest brother. Unfortunately, he never married of had any children. He died in 1913 at the age of 35 from drowning at sea. He seemed to be a happy guy. His father Conrad had the same well-pleased facial expressions. Family tells that Conrad (my great-great grandfather) was a jolly old fellow, unlike his wife, Minnie, who was more stern. I really don't know much about him. His family came from middle class, and they even owned their own weaving shop in Germany.
