When Harry filed his WWI Draft Registration, he reported that he was born in Six Mile Cross, Ireland. On the WWII Registration, he reports Belfast, Ireland. He was probably born in Six Mile Cross of which there are a couple. The one in Northern Ireland is in County Tyrone. And he then, also probably sailed from Belfast. Just a guess. More research is necessary. Back in those times, the North of Ireland was not always referred to as Northern Ireland, as it was still part of Ireland.
