Assuming Harry is Marie's Uncle.

Do you know where and when he was born?

Does Marie have a rough idea of when the cousins were born?

Look up Harry's birth registration.......then see if you can find a marriage to fit.

The marriage will then give you the mother's maiden name to enable you to find their childrens births.
