I searched the Irish Family History Foundation database. It has abt 11,000,000 rcds now and covers abt 60% of Ireland. Rcds B4 1840 are sparse. Also, rcds for Cork and Offaly contain a lot of Connors; however, these are not in the database.
I used a range of 1840 +/- 4 yrs for Henry's birth. For this name + variants, I get 13 hits. For this name, exact, I get 4 hits.
For Margaret's surname, are you sure you spelled it right? Price and Pierce seem more likely spellings.
You can remove a lot of ambiguity by searching the census data and finding the birth yr for both these ancestors. This would reduce the number of false positives by abt 80%.
Consider searching the LDS's Family History Center files. The LDS microfilmed ALL of the surviving rcds in Ireland nearly 50 yrs ago. This is more cumbersome, but a more complete data source.
