Early life
Cardozo was born September 1830. Cardozo's mother, Lydia Weston, was African American and Native American, a former slave. His father, Isaac Cardozo, was Sephardic Jewish of Portuguese descent[2].[3] He had two sisters, Lydia and Eslander. His brothers Thomas W. Cardozo and Francis Lewis Cardozo were educators and became politicians during the Reconstruction era. Their father was Isaac Cardozo who died in 1855. Henry was working as a shoemaker by age 14. He also worked as a carpenter and shipbuilder.[4] He apprenticed with a manufacturer of threshing machines.
In 1855, he married Catherine F. McKinney in Charleston, SC. His sister Eslander married Catherine's brother Christopher McKinney. In June 1858, he and his family (wife, son, mother, two sisters, brother-in-law, mother-in-law, sister-in-law, nephew) left Charleston, South Carolina on the steamship Nashville for New York.[5] According to the US census in 1860, his mother and sisters were living together in Cleveland, Ohio, and Henry worked as a tailor in that city and lived with his wife and their sons Isaac (age 4) and William (age 1).
