Could it have been the son in the photo, Harry not Henry

[mallosa]

Could it have been the son in the photo, Harry not Henry

That did cross my mind but Harry would have been about 56 yrs old at that time

However

TAYLOR, GEORGE MORETON.
GRO Reference: 1866 M Quarter in DUDLEY Volume 06C Page 18.

Henry Percy Maybury was born 1864

They don't look the same age in the photo so it has to be Harry!
