"Henry J. Canfield was born in Connecticut. He was son of Judson Canfield, a distinguished lawyer of that State and one of the proprietors of the township of Canfield, Ohio, to which he gave his name. Henry J. graduated at Yale college in 1806, studied law at the celebrated law school of Judge Reeve, in Litchfield, Connecticut, was admitted to the bar in Connecticut, and shortly afterwards came to Canfield, Ohio, to take charge of his father's lands. He was admitted to the bar of Ohio at Warren, devoted some attention to practice, but was principally engaged in farming and land surveying, in which he was skilled. He was a large sheep grower and published a work of great merit on The Sheep. On the organization of Mahoning county in 1846, at the first special court held by the judges, he was appointed clerk pro tem of the court of common pleas, and held the office until the appointment of the clerk for the fall term at the first regular term of the court held May 11th of that year. From his arrival in Ohio his residence was in Canfield. He there died in 1856."
