Henderson joined the Irish Volunteers at their foundation in November 1913.[2] He was present at the 1914 gun-running at Howth and he lived beside the Father Matthew Park in Fairview where many of the smuggled guns were stored and the Irish Volunteers drilled.
Henderson was in the GPO alongside Pearse, Connolly and Clarke during the 1916 Rising. He was interned in Stafford jail and then Frongoch in Wales after the Rising.
In 1927 Frank Henderson and Oscar Traynor set up the Fódhla printing company.[1]
