"William McCullough Henry Hankinson" (after his great-grandfather and grandfather on his mother's side), but always called William Henry, or "Henry" for short (usually written " William H." or "W. Henry"), was educated at St. Matthew's Hall, Port Golden, New Jersey, and Pennington Seminary, Pennington, New Jersey. In early manhood he was engaged in mercantile pursuits, in Trenton, Philadelphia, and Chicago, but subsequently returned to Trenton, and assisted in caring for his father and his property in his old age. After his father's decease, he engaged in the real estate business in Trenton, and acquired a competency. He was never married, and now lives in Trenton, New Jersey, 221 East Hanover Street.1 He was one of the original members of State Street Methodist Episcopal Church here (1859), and for years was a liberal contributor thereto; but is now a member of Broad Street Park Methodist Episcopal Church, which he helped largely to build, and was a trustee thereof until he resigned because of advancing years. ¹
