Hi VJ - I can help a little here.

St. Peter's of Plattsburgh Church Census of 1857, #126:
Pierre HENRY, 45
Pierre DUCHARME, 45 <this is obviously a transcription error, it should have her own first name along with her maiden name>
Children:
Leonie, 17
Baptiste, 14
Xavier, 10
Joseph, 9
Julie, 8
James, 6
Marie, 3
Napoleon, 7/12

Henry is also seen in French records as St. Henry, Henri, Honore.

I checked Drouin and found this marriage:
PIERRE HENRY & REINE DUCHARME
married 26 Nov 1832, Tres-Ste-Trinite-de-Contrecoeur, Vercheres
his parents: Pierre Henry & Scholastique Dubreau
her parents: Marc Ducharme & Marie Amable Jacques

A quick search for births only brought up oe:
Urgel Henry to Pierre & Reine
baptized 21 Mar 1835, also at Contrecoeur

I will e-mail the images of both documents to you.

There are literally hundreds of Henry/etc. entries on Drouin. If you do not have the subscription, you can still check the index. If you find some that you'd like me to look at for you (if you don't have access), just send me the links.

Reine is not a name familiar to Anglos, so I'm not surprised that she ended up Matilda, Hannah, and Ann.

Bev
