Born on his parent's farm near the small farming town of Warren Indiana, Henry James Eubank was the fifth of the elven children born to Joseph and Rosana (Rohrer) Eubank. He had four brothers, (Aaron, David, William, John) and six sisters, (Rachel Ellen, Sarah Catherine, Eliza Jane, Mary Etta, Elizabeth Ann, Ida Rosana).

On May 19, 1874 he married Charlotte Swaim. They had five children, Charles Franklin, Ida Viola Belle, Ernest "Everett", Oren "Emmett", Clarence "Lessel" Addison. It is noted that all the children except Charles were known and called by their middle names.

Henry James, like many of his ancestors, learned the building trades while growing up. After marriage, he lived much of his life on farms. After his son Charles got old enough to help with the farming they farmed together and worked in the building trades also.

Henry passed away at the home of his son Lessel on Coit Avenue in Grand Rapids Michigan and is interred in Fairplains Cemetery at 2056 Diamond Road NE, Grand Rapids, Michigan ... This according to Emmet Eubank in his 1974 "A Genealogical History Of The Eubank Family"
