But from The Henkel Memorial (1717-1911) First Series, Number Three, page 88, we see that "in 1826 he accepted a call to the Lutheran Church at Germantown, Ohio, where he passed a long and eminently successful pastorate which was only broken by a brief stay at Goshen, Ind., and Lewisburg, Ohio. . . . Like his brothers he possessed a literary turn of mind, and wrote both English and German productions for publication, evidencing great versatility and vigorous mind." Died April 23, 1870, about 3 mos. after older brother Ambrose; buried at Germantown, Ohio.
