BIOGRAPHY
Although not proven, Henry may be the son of Conrad Vogel, born about 1817 in Prussia. We find Conrad in the 1850 and 1860 censuses, as a carpenter or framer. In 1860 his wife was Hellen and his children were Henry, William, Frederick and George. In 1880 his wife was Ellen and the children were William, Frederick, George, Conrad and Robert. Conrad Vogel was naturalized October 21, 1851, so he probably arrived in the early 1840s. In 1857 Conrad Vogel was listed in Trow's NYC directory as carpenter, living at 140 E 41st Street

Henry C. Vogel married Emily C.___.in October, 1870. In December, when the census was taken, Henry was a clerk in a glass store. They were not found in the 1880 census. Henry and Emily were given a surprise thirtieth anniversary party in October, 1900. "Mr. and Mrs. Henry C. Vogel were agreeably surprised on the thirtieth anniversary of their wedding by a visit of the Eureka Progressive Euchre Club, at 353 Fourteenth street. The evening was passed in the usual enjoyable manner in the playing of games and presentation of numerous presents in commemoration of the event by the euchre club and other guests. Mrs. H. A. Ashwell and Mrs. Pierson were the lucky winners of first and second prizes, among the women, while Theodore Dunham and John A. Cook, sr., were the fortunate ones among the men. The club then proceeded to the annual election of officers and elected the following: Henry A. Ashwell, president, Theodore H. Dunham, secretary, and Henry C. Vogel, treasurer. After the meeting the members and guests partook of a collation. Among those present were: Mr. and Mrs. Henry A. Ashwell, Mr. and Mrs. John A. Cook, jr.; Mr. and Mrs. Theodore H. Dunhan, Mr. and Mrs. William Kennedy, Mr. and Mrs. John A. Cook jr. [sr.]; Mr. and Mrs. P. Kelly, Mr. and Mrs. G. Aston, Mr. and Mrs. George W. Vogel, Benjamin Boning, Mrs. M. Pierson [widow of Edward Pierson], Mrs. S. Fielding, Arthur Fielding."

As neither Henry C. Vogel nor his wife Emily could be identified in the 1910 census it's unclear when Henry passed away. His widow Emily was living in Miami, Florida with her daughter and son-in-law John and Emily Cook.
