I am trying to find the above and his sister Emma born 1848 on the 1861 census. I have tried all sort of computations of the surname, searching with a christian name etc.,,
Any suggestions for finding them.

Well done Andrew, looks like you were correct

pm received from Penelope

Emma in Stratford is not the correct one but the second posting looks spot on as Henry was a Bellows maker.

Many thanks
