Whoops, missed something in our census file: a note that says Henry's mother is probably the 75-year-old Hannah who is living in his household in 1850 Census. She died 22 Dec 1856 and is buried at Trinity Reformed Church in Pottstown. Her tombstone didn't have birth year, just her age, so we can only estimate a date of birth of 1774 from the tombstone, or 1775 from the census. Clearly supports your theory Henry's mom was a Hannah, but we need more proof who his dad was.
And just to make myself more embarrased, I already HAD the church baptisms for your Henry's children in my tree -- they were all from Trinity Reformed Church. I haven't found Henry's baptism yet, though...let me keep digging later tonight when I have time...
