I'm not sure if I understand you correctly:
In step 1, did you tag the images as "Henry"? If so, having both tags is the 
"correct" result.

I see the following alternatives:

a) Do everything in Settings|Configure KPhotoAlbum...|Tag groups:
a1. Right-Click on "People", add new group "Henry"
a2. Select the new group and check "Henry X." as a member

b) Do everything in the annotation dialog:
b1. Right-click on "Henry X." and choose Tag groups|Add this tag to a new tag 
group..., name the new group "Henry"

Neither a) nor b) should affect the tags on individual images at all, but only 
make "Henry X." a member of a new group "Henry".

HTH,
