Sold with his wife Lucy 72 acres of farm land to the Rural Cemetery Association for $7000 on September 3, 1859 to establish the Oakwood Cemetery.

The death of Mr. Henry Raynor, which occurred on Wednesday, summoned from our midst another of the early settlers of this place. He came here forty years ago, and for a quarter of a century was prominently engaged in mercantile pursuits with his brother, under the firm name of "W. & H. Raynor." He has since operated extensively at the West. He was possessed of great energy, clear foresight and excellent business habits. He died in the sixty-seventh year of his age, leaving a widow and four daughters. The many virtues and rare social qualities of the deceased, endeared him to a large circle of relatives and friends, by whom his death is deeply mourned.
