Bio
Harry is the youngest of the five children born to Newell and Ellen Woodworth, and he is Bama Ford's baby brother.

Harry is born on April 23, 1882 in Williamsfield. He is very much the baby, as big brother Howard is 12 when he is born and Mary is 13. With Edith being 7 and even Laura being 3 years older, Harry has a long way to go.

Before long Howard leaves for California and Edith gets married. Then when he is 17 poor Harry loses his mother. He stays at home with his dad and Laura and works as a farmer.

Harry then changes his profession and moves into Hardware sales. I imagine his father was not happy as they come from a long line of farmers, and with Howard gone Newell has no sons to help him on the farm. Harry stays the course and gets married to Mary Bridgman in April of 1906. In 1910 the couple have their only child whom they name Arthur.

Arthur is a bright boy and does well in school and is active on the schools newspaper. He even wins a county-wide essay. After graduation, Arthur goes off to Ohio University. I imagine Harry I very proud of him. I also can imagine Harry's heart breaking when his son dies on January 11, 1929.

Harry continues to lose loved ones. When he finally passes at home at the age of 83 he has outlived his wife, son, father, mother, Edith, Howard, and Mary.
