Henry Reynolds Watrous Death Certificate 1923
2010
This is the death certificate for direct ancestor Henry Reynolds Watrous. He died at the Salt Lake County Hospital which was located at 2100 South and State Street in Salt Lake City, Utah. At one time, the hospital was considered to be centrally located and served all of the Salt Lake Valley. It has since been razed. For the last few months of his life, Henry lived with his son Everest Elliott Watrous and Everest’s family. They lived on Milton Avenue in Salt Lake City. Prior to his illness he lived in Big Cottonwood Canyon at a mining camp. He never lost his love of mining.
The mortuary named Qualtrough-Allcott handled Henry’s burial in the Murray City Cemetery. Their records were destroyed in a fire. Therefore, we do not know if Henry had an obituary or a funeral. He is buried next to his oldest son Earl Pancake Watrous. Henry’s first wife Edith Glendora Pancake Watrous is buried in the Prairie Lawn Cemetery in Wellington, Sumner County, Kansas and his second wife Clara Harriett McGregor Watrous Cristink is buried in the Mt. Olivet Cemetery in Salt Lake City, Utah.
