Comments: John Harkins (Nee: ) | Portland ME | 1921-1940 | Comments: This photo is from the Ethel Wight Studio, Portland, Maine.
This negative envelope says, “Mrs. Ethel Harkins, 150 Grafton St #825.”
Why I believe this to be the individual.
• The 1936 Portland City Directory lists Walter P and Ethel M Harkins living at 150 Grafton.
• The 1940 US Census lists Walter P and Ethyel M Harkings living at 27 Tying in Portland, Cumberland County, Maine. Living with them are six children, Lillian (16), Walter P (16), George (14), Frances (11), John (8), Constance (6), and Richard (2).
• This photo is of a boy, taken about 1936 when George was ten and John was 4. The child in the picture appears to me to be closer to 4 or 5 than 10, so I believe it to be John.
This photo may be of George, but I believe it is John.
