financier Samuel Jaudon. Two years later Lea's brother Matthew Carey Lea married her sister Elizabeth (1827–1881), whose husband merchant William Bakewell had died in Cincinnati in 1850, leaving her with a young daughter. The Leas had three sons (who succeeded their father in the publishing business) and a daughter: Francis Henry Lea (1851–1902), Charles Matthew (1853–1886), Anna (Nina) Lea (1855–1927) and Arthur Henry Lea (1859–1939). In 1878, Lea became seriously ill and was almost nearly blind. He was invalid from 1880 to 1884 and used that time to revisit his literary interests. Death and legacy Lea died of pneumonia on October 24, 1909, in Philadelphia and was buried at Laurel Hill Cemetery. In 1914, the Henry C. Lea Elementary School in Philadelphia was named in his honor. His personal collection of purchased manuscripts and incunabula as well as other early printed books was bequeathed to the University of Pennsylvania. In 1925, the university dedicated a library, which it named in his honor and which includes much of that personal collection of books and manuscripts. Since 1962, the collection has been located in the Van Pelt-Dietrich Library Center which is now a part of the Kislak Center for Special Collections, Rare Books and Manuscripts. In 1933, Lea's son Arthur donated four Greek vases that belonged to his father to the Penn Museum.
