Henry Lewis Raphael had 12 children with his wife Henriette. Walter, the 6th died 12 October 1938 in Bournemouth. Herbert, the 9th, born 23 December 1859, became an MP and died 25 September 1924, Folkestone.
Henry, a rich banker, was born in London and died in Newmarket, whilst his home was given as 3, Portland Place. But "he took a great interest in the turf" so it seems he died happy.
