I tried searching Pennsylvania birth records for around 1803 and couldn't find anything. According to this:

thats where it says he was born, however, I did find a passenger list from ships from Germany which match Heinrich Ernst born 1803 in Hannover Germany and arrived in USA in 1851. The first record in Canada appears to be 1852, so it could match. https://www.geni.com/documents/view?doc_id=6000000164010317849

It does make the dates of birth of some of his children confusing though, since they would be born before he arrived in the USA.

Hm, I also found a baptism record for a Henry Ernst with the birthdate which matches:

So it looks like he was born there. His father is also named Henry Ernst from the looks of it.
