Hiya Annie Well, on the 1920 US census...in Quincy Ward 4, Norfolk, MA
HARLING John, Head, b ~ 1885, age 35, England, to USA 1888. nat. papers pending, teamster, granite wagon. Margaret, wife, b ~1875, 45,England, as were her parents. To USA 1888, alien Margaret S., daughter, b 1911, Massachusetts Edith, daughter, b 1912, Massachusetts John A, son, b 1914, Massachusetts John, FATHER, b 1833, England, as were his parents, no occupation, widower, to USA in 1888, alien.
and they did indeed arrive in Boston on 12 May, 1888 on board the ship "England." John, age 50, labourer, destination Boston Mary (or Marg) S, age 40 Sarah, she was 10 or 12 and John age 4. (tricky for my old eyes to read)
soooo, hopefully, we can find them on 1881 UK census
A VC recipient can be a general laborer..... should be awarded big $$$ if you ask me.
Hugs Grub

John Sr's wife Margaret died of pneumonia 23 March 1904 at 9 Kidder Street in Quincy. Her maiden name was Harmon and her DC states she was born Ireland. The informant (hubbie) did not know her parents names.....but she was buried at Mt. Wollaston Cemetery in Quincy on the 26th.
I'd hazard a guess you'll find John lying in close proximity to Margarets final resting place.
In case it's of interest...their son John married in Braintree, Jane R. Matthews on 2 June 1909. Daughter Sarah Ellen married Harry Thomas Osborne, a teamster, on 10 Feb 1894 in Quincy. She states her father is John J. Harling and mother is Margaret Harmon.
Best wishes Jean

No not mine.....but the vital records are viewable at the NEHGS website (with a sub) through 1910 and we just got lucky that Margaret had the good sense to die before then!
Mt Wollaston Cemetery is a lovely place. My daughter used to live a few miles south of it and I recall driving past it when visiting her. I wonder if the Quincy Historical Society might be of any assistance in determining if John is indeed buried there... http://www.quincyhistory.org/PAGES/library.html They say they'll respond to email.....
Also here is a blurb about the cemetery... http://ci.quincy.ma.us/CemAboutPage55.html
If the Historical folks are of no assistance then perhaps the city could advise you of the burial plot and who was residing in it.
Best wishes Jean

http://shadowsoftime.co.nz/4ths/dragoonh/harling1.html - here's some info on the Richard Harling in the 4th Light Dragoons.
- born about 1826 in Kendall, brother James in New Padford Nottinghamshire, name also given as 'Harding'.
Place is probably RADFORD, there is a James there in 1861 with his family and a brother John, aged 26, born Kindal (Kendal)... red herring or not?

Not sure where to go with this notation, Annie

Search for Harling, using Edit/Search feature
Says John was the last survivor??
