Hallo, Raelene. According to Henri's biographical entry on this site, he was married to Margaret and their two children were Henri and Frederick. Margaret's mother Sarah Hutton also lived with the family. The address which Henri gave when he signed on for the voyage was 4, Queens Park Terrace, London. But the US Senate Inquiry had another address listed - Jamison Street, Notting Hill Gate, London. Before Titanic, Henri worked aboard another ill-fated liner, the Lusitania. He was born in France, at Lyon.

If you look in the archived sections of the guestbook (top of this page) and find the posts for 14 December 2004, there is an inquiry from another great grand-daughter, Sarah Jane Stockton.

Incidentally, Raelene, you might get more responses if you post in the Crew Research section of the forum, which as a member you are able to do. The Guestbook is intended for non-members, and not all of the regulars keep an eye on this part of the site.
