In his book on South Worthington, Rev. Moody includes a story about Henry's grandfather. He writes, 'Mr. Cross' grandfather, David Cross, was in the Burgoyne Army, having enlisted from Scotland, and was made a prisoner when Burgoyne surrendered. When the prisoners were marching to Boston they spent a night in the Chester meeting-house, and were fed by the townspeople. Among those who visited them was Nannie Holland, whose father guarded the prisoners. David fell in love with her. The second night afterwards they stopped in Worcester, when it was found that several prisoners were missing, and among them David. After a few years he returned to Chester and married Nannie.'
