Ted Howard was born as Edwin John Harney in Bristol, England in 1868. He joined the Royal Navy, deserted his ship and married on 12 February 1889, under the surname Howard, Harriet Garard Goring in Christchurch. They lived part of the time in Australia, and part of the time in New Zealand. His three daughters, Adelaide, Mabel and Elsie, were born in Adelaide. When his wife died in the Adelaide suburb of Bowden in 1903, he came to New Zealand with his daughters.[1]
