In 1901 he was living with his family at 30 Edge Lane, Liverpool, Lancashire, and worked as a Bankers Clerk \cite{HMHancoxOccupation}.

In 1911 he lived at 11 Central Park Avenue, Liscard, Wallesey, Cheshire, and was still a Bank Clerk \cite{HMHancoxResidence}. At that time, Harry was living as a boarder, age 42, so it is probable that he never married.
