After first peddling goods in California and Corvallis, he took advantage of the homesteading opportunities in eastern Oregon. He began operating a mule pack train from The Dalles to Canyon City and the Idaho mines in 1861. Henry later met Colonel Jackson Morrow and together they opened the first mercantile store in the Umatilla area.media/OJM01052w.jpgplain2017-04-26T12:47:50-07:001900Heppner-Cohn Family Papers, Oregon Jewish Museum and Center for Holocaust EducationKeenan Ward2cdcd8d7f43837000f1c46b62b720aeba303ca29
