The known children of Henry and Elizabeth:
The family appeared as follows on the 1850 census of Montgomery County, Illinois (22Nd Dist S W Part):
On the 1860 census of Vanburensburgh (T7NR2W) in Montgomery County, Illinois they appear as follows:

The 1880 census entry for Henry and family appears as follows in Fillmore, Montgomery County, Illinois:
This abstract is from familysearch.org; page 217A. It appears that new wife, Nancy, had children from her first marriage who were still at home. I would guess that 'Rochel' is 'Rachel' or 'Rochelle'. Do you think it might have been confusing to have two Rachels in the house? Also in Fillmore was the family of 60-year-old Elizabeth Pyatt whom I have not yet placed, and Henry's brother, Milburn Pyatt.
Some writing of Henry Pyatt Jr can be found on the page for Henry Pyatt Sr. He tells about many early settlers and times of the Hurricane area of Montgomery County, Illinois.
