Harry was born in Portsmouth, England on March 14, 1887. He came to Canada in 1907 and worked in Osage for some time. Later he went to Winnipeg, where he was living at the time of his enlistment in February of 1916. While serving in England, Harry renewed his acquaintance with an old friend, Madeline Irene Margaret, and they were married on August 26, 1916. At the end of the war, Harry and Madge and their one year old daughter Paddy settled in Canada. They filed on a homestead at 22-76-3-W6, north of Kakut Creek. In 1949, they sold their property and moved to White Rock, BC to be nearer to Paddy.
