Notes:

marriage in Stark County, OH (source: www.ancestry.com world tree search)
buried in Centenary Chapel cemetery, Stark Co OH

--
They settled in Stark Co OH in 1809.

--
On 1837-07-18 George Zentz (husband of Henry's daughter Elizabeth), bought his sister-in-law's share
of land they inherited from Henry. The transaction describes the land as:

N 1/2 of SE 1/4 of Section 7, Township 17 Range 7, and
W 1/2 of SW 1/4 of Section 8, Township 17 Range 7, and
a 10-acre lot in SW corner of NW 1/4 of Section 8, Township 17 Range 7
in Stark Co OH

That looks to me like 170 acres, but the 1/10 share George bought appears to be 10 acres.
