She lived there her entire youth until marrying Calvin Scott Henry II, age 90 who was born in Umpqua. They remained together in Umpqua, Oregon for 68 years. They cultivated many interests together, especially working the ranch that Cal was born on. Cal ranched his entire life with Ella at his side. They raised sheep and cattle with Ella Cooking many meals for the hay crews and sheep shearers. Ella was the orchard boss in the prune fields they cultivated when Umpqua was famous for the volume of prunes produced. Cal also ran a sawmill located on the ranch. Even in their retirement years they worked hard on the Henry Estates Winery, from planting the first crop of grapes to hosting wine fests all over Oregon. Ella made “Grandma's Jelly” for the winery which was a big seller and Cal recently had a wine named after him, “Henry the II”, a Cabernet blend. They belonged to an archery club together and also enjoyed gardening – Ella with flowers known for their beauty and cal with delicious vegetables.
