RE: Correcting History
As far as my knowledge goes, you are correct. No family member ever visited him. Although an occasional reporter showed up. Henry did not trust anyone. I never came upon a doctor from the states just the reports of several German doctors.
Henry and Clara's three children went to stay with Clara's brother William Hamilton Harris in Cleveland. As you know the one boy, Henry Riggs Rathbone went on to become a US Congressman. He sponsored legislation to acquire the Petersen House.

I forgot to say, thank you for the kind welcome. I stay very busy so I probably will not be posting often. And at the moment am deep into my next book [no questions about it please]. A Happy New Year to everyone.

One last post for tonight. I don't think it helped Henry's mind too much, when his first child, the above named Henry Riggs Rathbone, shared the same birth date with the man whose assassination five years ealier, Henry had been unable to prevent!
