From the above sources, we know that Henry was the son of Samuel and Emma (Anthony) Shackford, born in California January 4, 1883. His parents were living in Stanislaus around the time of his birth so we assume that is where he was born.
We find Henry listed with the middle name of Harrison, in the California Voter Registration lists working in North, Stanislaus, California, Tulare, California, and Grayson Precinct, Stanislaus as a laborer and a farmer between 1900 and 1910. We're fairy confident this is the same Henry because he is working on the same farm as his 88 year old grandfather Simone Hoxie Anthony, and his brother Frank Anthony Shackford.
From Henry's death certificate, we know that he died a horrid death - crushed under a runaway wagon in a town where he had only lived for one week. We also learn that he was single and his poor mother who had lost her husband two years earlier was the informant for Henry's death. Tragically she also lost a daughter Lila in a car accident three years later.
