c1918? Harry was born in 1895, and was in the war. He looks younger here than I had previously thought.

Brought forward for the Vintage Photos Theme Park theme of: CITIES Taken by Harry or Agnes King in 1922 as they came into the New York City harbor as immigrants from Britain. I wonder about the other immigrants on the boat. How many of them were successful and happy in America? How many struggled and wished they had never come? How many returned to their homelands? Despite some late in life tragedies, Harry and Agnes made a good life in America. Harry's mother visited the following year and then joined them in this country several years later. They never returned to England or Scotland. Harry and Agnes both died in their late 80s and 90s - Harry first in Florida in his late 80s, and Agnes in Vermont, in her late 90s.
