Married to Elizabeth Richards.
From his daughter Alice's obituary:
Her father came to America in 1847, locating at Mineral Point, Wis., but soon removed to British Hollow, in the same state, where he bought a little farm on which to settle down. The next summer, 1848, Mrs. Broad, with her mother and the rest of the family, came to this country and joined the father at British Hollow, where they remained on the farm for seven years, at which time they sold out to Mr. and Mrs. William Craze, late of Calumet, some of whose decendants still reside in that vicinity.
Coming to Lake Superior, Mrs. Broad, with the rest of the family, landed at Eagle River on August 11, 1855. Her father found employment at the Central mine, where he worked until the next spring when, on the 10th day of April, he was killed in No. 2 shaft, and was the first man to lose his life under the Central mining company, leaving a widow and seven children to mourn his untimely end.
Henry and his family show up on the 1850 US Census living in Grant County, Wisconsin. Henry Nichols, age 41, his wife Elizabeth age 45, children: Henry 19, Elizabeth 18, Mary 13, Andrew 11, Alice 8, Sarah 6 and Susan 3. Everyone was born in England.
It is believed that their daughter Mary died while the family was still living in Wisconsin, but no verification has yet been found.
On the 1870 and 1880 US census, Henry's widow Elizabeth is found living with her youngest daughter Susan. After Susan's untimely death, she next shows up living with her son Andrew in northern Minnesota in 1885. It is not known where Elizabeth is buried.
Suggested edit: He married Elizabeth A. Richards who was in the 1870 and 1880 censuses with her daughter and son-in-law, William and Susan Nicholls Richards
