Henry Teer was the link that provided the incentive for my interest in Bozeman Genealogy. He corresponded often with my grand aunt Minnie Bozeman Repass. I suspect that Henry is now privy to the mysteries of our ancestry that we the living have yet to unravel. Henry will be remembered by many as the man who provided "Sketches of the Bozeman Family" launching many of us on the path to discovery of who we are in terms of our ancestry. We owe him a debt of gratitude and loving memory. Thank you Henry. You will be missed.
