A Louis VERLIN came to our area (Illinois) to marry off three daugthers. Henry Harrison married one, Mary Louisa VERLIN who had a dowry (More Land) Her father was sharing his 400 acre grant for being heir to a Revolutionary War veteran.
Henry Harrison had land and a vineyard. He was a barrel maker and this all goes together.Henry Harrison was a farmer too. I did not spell the name correct for his wife (Mary Louisa Verlin) The wine and cooper skills are more colorfull, but with the marriage and his inheritance he had a nice parcel of land.
Henry Harrison was named for President William Henry Harrison as his older brother named George Washington Montroy and Henry, the baby brother, took a presidents name in admiration of his older brother George. President Harrison slogan for election to president lean heavy on his war record in the famous battle, Tippecanoe, with the indains. The slogan with his vice president, "Tippecanoe and Tyler too" gave the nickname Tip. My graandfather, Henry Harrison, was called TIP.
