I can't really help to much with the history of Henry, but it is my understanding that the family carried the name of Ritter. One son, Edward, for some reason believed the last name to be correctly REUTER. Henry Edward on your list, I believe should be Henry Charles Ritter. This is my Great-Grandfather. Edward, a separate brother, was the one to stray from the RITTER spelling. Henry Charles married Mary Jane Bartley, whom I believe to be from the upper Mississippi Valley area.
