Hello,
I am seeking information on Harry McLaughlin, born in Dublin, Ireland. I have seen birth dates ranging from 1888 to 1893. Harry was a resident of New Brunswick, Canada 1n 1915. He signed up with the Canadian Expeditionary Forces on 29 July 1915 in Sussex, New Brunswick. He gave his date of birth as 1 May 1888, Dublin, Ireland. His next of kin was listed as Emma McLaughlin, Sackville Street, Dublin. In the before attestation questions Harry gave a Mrs. Amy Taylor ( cousin ) as his next of kin and her address as No. 7 Hions Building, Farrier Street, Worcester, England. After some months under fire in France he was taken to England for medical treatment. He was deemed unfit to return to the war front. In 1918 while still in England, the Manchester area, he gave a Daniel McLaughlin ( brother ) as his next of kin. In December of 1917 He married Hilda Porter of Manchester. Harry was shipped back to Canada 1n 1918 and Hilda arrived in September of 1918 as a War Bride.
Harry died in saint John, New Brunswick 14 July 1957. On the Certificate of Registration of Death his parents names were listed as unknown.
I have not discovered when he first arrived in Canada.
Thanks
