A History of Van Buren County Michigan By Captain O. W. Rowland, Volume II Published by The Lewis Publishing Company Chicago and New York 1912, graciously typed and submitted by Barbara Eberhart, from MIGenWeb, Van Buren Co.:
Biographies of Van Buren Citizens:
Henry L. Dobbyn.- To him whose name inaugurates this review, belongs to the distinction of having lived on the same half section in Van Buren county since the age of seven years. He is a Canadian by circumstance of birth, but for many years has been one of the most loyal and helpful of the adopted sons of this township, and has ever given his support to such measures as he has esteemed likely to be of general benefit to the community. Henry F. Dobbyn was born September 9, 1846, and is the son of James and Margaret (Drake) Dobbyn. They were among the early pioneers in this section, having come to Michigan, in April 1854, at which time they took up three hundred and twenty acres of land from the government in section 32. The father who engaged in farming throughout his entire life, died in 1907, his wife preceding him the Great Beyond in 1905. They were the parents of a family of children of typical pioneer proportions, eleven boys and girls coming to bless their household. An enumeration of them is as follow: William, residing in Mancelona, Michigan; Henry L.; John and Richard, deceased; Jane, wife of George W. Hale, of Mancelona; George, a citizen of Mancelona; Curtis, residing in Hyburn; Mary, deceased; and George and his twin brother whose young lives ended in infancy.
