HistoryHenning came to Adelaide, South Australia aboard Pauline from Germany in December 1849, with his father, mother and their nine children, including himself. For fifteen years he worked in his father's furniture and mattress factory in Morphett Street, then continued the business on his own account for about four years in Rundle Street. Subsequently he was landlord of the Globe Hotel for five years. Afterwards he purchased, in partnership with R. D. Ross and the Hon. John Baker, the Angipena, Motpena, and Artemar stations, in the north. They sold these runs, on 21 September 1883, to John Whyte (c. 1826 – 16 February 1902), of Whyte, Counsell, & Co. In February 1881 he became a partner in a firm which became Henning, Bruce, & Aldridge.[1] He was elected to the House of Assembly in April 1878 for the seat of Albert, and was twice re-elected.[2] He was a somewhat prominent in the House, taking great pains in the preparation of his speeches, but was generally criticised as holding pessimistic views regarding the future of the colony.
