| Henry's origin in not certain but it seems likely that he was born
around 1750 in Switzerland. He probably came to the Netherlands in the
1770s or 1780s. His name is recorded as "Marc Henry Grivel" in the baptizement record of Marguerite Grivel. The first record of Henry's presence in Amsterdam is his "poorterinschrijving", which is his registration as citizen of Amsterdam, on February 11, 1789. Here he listed as his place of origin "Bern". Henry died in Amsterdam and was burried on August 2, 1806. |
