BiographyHenry Howard was born March 8, 1833 in Detroit, Michigan,[1] the son of John and Nancy Hubbard Howard.[2] The elder Howard was a grocer and hotelier in Detroit, but the 1834 cholera outbreak convinced him to move his family moved to Port Huron. Once in Port Huron, John Howarn entered the lumber trade and eventually built three sawmills in the city.[2] Henry Howard received his schooling in Port Huron, and for four years worked in various positions in Port Huron and Detroit.[4] In 1854,[3] Henry Howard joined his father's business, and the two were partners for 26 years until John Howard's retirement in 1877,[3] after which Henry continued the business alone.[2] Henry Howard was also involved in a number of other businesses, and at one time or another was president of the Port Huron First National Bank, the Port Huron Times Company,[4] the Port Huron Gas Light Co, the Port Huron & Northwestern Railroad, and the Northern Transit Company.[2] In 1856, Howard married Elizabeth Experience Spalding;[4][4] the couple had six children, only two of which outlived them:[2] Emily Louise and John Henry.[4] Howard was an alderman of Port Huron for 14 years, a state representative in 1873 - 1875, and served as Port Huron's mayor in 1882.[2] He ran for state senate, but was defeated by William M. Cline. He served as Regent of the University of Michigan from 1891 until his death in 1894.[2][4] Notes
