| Notes |
- Harry emigrated to Portland, Maine with his parents about 1894 and accompanied them to Bath, Maine in 1900. He served in the US army in France during World War 1 and was injured by gas. He worked as a shipfitter for Bath Iron Works before and after his military service. Some time in the 1920's he moved to Quincy, Massachusetts and worked as a shipfitter and loftsman for Bethlehem Shipbuilding Division from which he retired in about 1958. In later years he lived in South Weymouth, Massachusetts and died there. Although relatively small in stature, Harry Miller maintained a "tough guy" image, sometimes almost belligerent.
