Biography

Born in St. John, New Brunswick, Canada.

In the 1880 census, the two-year-old is living with his parents in Cambridge, Massachusetts. They had moved there shortly after Havelock's birth.

In the 1910 census, Havelock and his wife Margaret are living in Cambridge with their daughters Mary, Lillian and Sarah. Havelock is working as a teamster for a coal company.

In the 1920 census, they're still in Cambridge and Havelock has the same job (but now he's driving a coal truck). They've also added three more daughters: Margaret, Grace, and Frances.
