Biography[]
Henry was a young child who was born only a few years prior to the fall of society as a result of a zombie apocalypse]]. He was the younger brother of a teenage boy named Benjamin and resided at a community known as the Kingdom in the U.S. state of Virginia.
Henry and Benjamin were very close, and Benjamin took measures to improve his survival instincts for the sake of being able to protect Henry. Unfortunately, Benjamin died after being shot by a member of the Saviors named Jared.
Henry made it his mission to avenge his brother's death. Henry made his first human kill when he impaled a Savior named Gavin through the throat in order to save Morgan Jones. This left Ezekiel, Morgan and Carol Peletier stunned since Gavin had surrendered and wasn't a threat but Henry was not aware of this.
When several of the Saviors were captured by members of the Hilltop Colony, Henry stole a gun and broke into the stockade housing them, demanding to find the one who killed his brother. As it turned out, Jared was among their number, but Henry did not learn this at this time. Due to Henry's arrival, the prisoners were able to escape. It was Morgan Jones who finally caught up with Jared and killed him.
