I found a good solution to be one image each from the left and right plus one from directly in front, all at approximately the same distances.

Thank you once more for your efforts on my behalf. I have located the names of his wife, not Celia but close, and both daughters. Now to search for them.
Thank you again.

Other Countries / John Murray died Hong Kong 2024

Seeking any information regarding my relative John Murray who was born during 1953 probably in Ayrshire, Scotland and passed away at Gleneagles Hospital, Hong Kong on 16th January 2024. His wife (Celia?) was an Asian lady from Hong Kong. They had 2 daughters who lived in England I believe.
My grandmother Elizabeth Murray (b. 1891) and John's grandfather Charles Murray (b. 1895) were brother and sister.
I am endeavouring to fill the gap between Charles' unknown wife & their children, one male of which must have been John's father.

oldohiohome, many thanks for your most valuable input.
My Henry Murphy married one sister (Margaret) of my paternal grandmother's family.
Henry's contact for the Tuscania voyage was his sister "Mrs Bridget Kennedy, McDonald Row, Dalry".
My father's great-grandparents were James & Bridget (m.s. Quinn) Kennedy (b. 19 Feb 1867, Dalry).
Mrs Margaret Murphy, 22 Manse Street, Saltcoats [my home town] were Henry's wife and ultimately their family of five daughters.
Was it Henry Murphy or cousin James Malloy who had been in the U.S. during period 1907-1914 in McDonald, Pa?
Again, I am most appreciative of your efforts.
Sincerely
Jim
