Howard was born August 6, 1907 on the farm near Arlington in the Telbasta area. His parents were Gustoff and Louise (Borcherding) Meierhenry. He grew up there and attended high school in Arlington. He farmed that same farm with his father for many years, until his parents moved into Fremont. Then Howard and his wife, the former Opal Hansen, whom he married on June 17, 1934 in Telbasta, continued farming the family farm.
