William Henry Koontz Obituary, The Atlanta Constitution, July 6, 1911, p. 4: "General Henry Koontz Dead. Somerset, Ky., July 5—General Henry W. Koontz, lawyer-poet and former congressman, died at midnight at his home here in his eighty-seventh year." We suspect that the Somerset, Kentucky dateline location for Koontz's death is inaccurate. William Henry Koonz was a lawyer in Somerset, Pennsylvania, and was a member of Congress. By our collection, Koonz would have been 81, not 87 in the year of his birth. William Henry Koontz |
