I think the 1915 passenger list and the border crossing documents do seem to indicate that he was alive after 1912 and that he was living in Canada until at least 1926. Even though the age is out on the 1926 crossing, his physical description appears to be the same on both border crossing documents. I couldn't find him in the US on the 1930 census.

Where are you Annie?
I don't think I received your latest PM.

I am trying to contact the Harry relative who was living Tweed Heads last year.
I am happy to field requests for information.
Do you have a contact for RSL Pres. Ivan Friske?

I am in Gisborne Victoria.
It is exciting!

Regards

There is a book "Queensland Battlers" by John Wright which speaks about the war time deeds of Gilbert Harry.
I have a note that there is a Memorial at Milmerran to Gilbert Harry.
I don't even know where that is.
