CODE, Henry -- an early day pioneer of Evanston died at his home in North Evanston last Friday morning, his demise being due to a two weeks battle against the ravages of pneumonia.
He was born August 21, 1836 at Lincolnshire, England and came to America when 22 years of age. He removed to Utah with the pioneers in 1862 and came to Evanston in 1879, having resided here continuously since that time. He was married to Myranda Whipple at Salt Lake in 1873, and to this union several children were born. His wife passed away several years ago, and his daughter, Mrs. Fred Isobaker died in Evanston two weeks ago. He is survived by a brother in California and a sister in Salt Lake. Also by two sons, David Burton and Charles Code, and tow daughters Mrs. William Titmus and Mrs. William Barnes of Evanston. Another daughter Mrs. R. D. Freeman resides in Idaho.
He was known around Evanston as a genius. Although both arms had been amputated at the elbow when he was a young man he could repair the most intricate part of a watch. He maintained a machine shop in Evanston for several years, and his work at all times was satisfactory and executed in a workmanlike manner. He was an honorable, upright citizen and leaves a moral and business record behind him that is worthy of emulation.
Funeral services were held Monday afternoon from the LDS church, and interment took place in the Evanston city cemetery. [Wyoming Times, January 26, 1911]
