This has to be the same family. My great great great grandfather William Westphal had a brother Fredrick. Both were farmers in Wheatland township, Will county, Illinois. William and Fredrick's parents, Henry and Sophia (Wornkey) emigrated to America with an infant named Heinrich, possibly your Henry,and Henry's parents, Heinrich and Dorothea (Doris) aboard the ship John Bertram. It arrived at Castle Garden, NY. on June 3 1857. So many heinrichs and henrys it gets confusing.
