      Ancestry has Henry's middle name as 'Gilmore'. I suspect this is Gilmer for his mother's brother, Allen Gilmer Reynolds. The other children of Herodias are all named for her siblings. These names follow the tradition of the time; having originated from the Philpott family of Herodias' Mother, Sarah Ann 'Sally' who married John Devin Reynolds. Henry, their first son, is, of course named for her husband's father who was married to Elizabeth Rossett.
