From- The Indian Pioneer Papers- It's Chiefs, Legislatures & Leading Men by HF & ES O'Beirne:
John Henry Covel was born 18 Jul 1848, close to the National Capital. He is the son of the late Caleb Covel of Massachusetts, who came to Park Hill with the Missionaries at an early date. His mother was Eliza Turtle, whose relatives were prominent in the Old State. "Henry" was sent by his mother to Illinois District to learn Cherokee (soon after the death of his father) and during a term of eight years, attended the neighborhood schools.
When the war broke out, he accompanied a party of Cherokee's going south, and traveled with them as far as Red River, where he joined the refugees. At the termination of the war, he went to Cane Hill College in Arkansas, but being left an orphan by the death of his mother in 1867, he was forced to shift for himself. Then followed a brief life on the cattle range, and a little experience in such hardships as ox-driving and so forth. At length, Henry was appointed school teacher in the Sequoyah District, and later on went to Coowescoowee District, where he taught three years. At the age of twenty-seven years, he married Lizzie Mayes, daughter of Wash Mayes (present High Sheriff) and neice to J.B. Mayes, principal Chief. Lizzie's mother is a sister to ex-Chief Bushyhead. By this union, Mr Covel has two children, Ella May and Jesse Crawford. Soon after his marriage, and quite unexpectedly, he was appointed First Assistant Teacher at the Cherokee Orphanage Asylum and taught there four years, after which he was elected Clerk of the Saline District for two years. At the expiration of the term, he was appointed Principal Teacher of the Orphan Asylum for four years, but resigned that position on the election of Joel B. Mayes to the Chieftancy of the Cherokee Nation in 1887. The Chief then appointed him as Executive Secretary, which office he held until November 1891, when he was re-appointed on the Chief's re-election. Mr Covel is the owner of two farms; one of seventy acres in the Saline District, and one of one hundred acres, close to the Capital. He also owns a small herd of cattle on Grand River, and a pleasant residence in Tahlequah.
Mr Covel is a self made man, and has no reason to be ashamed of the fact. Without parent's assistance since early boyhood, he has educated himself to become a good educator. He is affable in manner and pleasant in disposition, with a good stock of common sense as a basis to his book knowledge.

Notes for HENRY "OWEN" COVEL:
Notes by Teri Dimmett


According to Dawes Rolls, the percentage of Cherokee blood for Henry O. Covel is 3/8.


The quotes in Henry "Owen" Covel indicate he was most often called Owen, probably because his father went by the name Henry instead of John. It looks like Robert was also used in place of Henry to diffrentiate him from his father.
