Henry Huttleston Rogers Coe, or Hank as he was known to his wife and friends, was the youngest of the three boys. His parents' interest in the American West had a profound effect upon him and he lived in Cody, Wyoming for most of his adult life. Henry served as an enlisted man in the United States Navy during World War II, and was wounded in a Japanese torpedo attack on his ship. Married three times, Henry and his third wife Margaret "Peg" Shaw, daughter of the publisher of the Cody Enterprise, converted Pahaska Tepee, a hunting lodge once belonging to Buffalo Bill Cody, into a popular resort.
