- Perhaps Harry and Laura met at the bakery, since in 1920 he was a baker and she was a housekeeper at a bakery. They were married on 22 February 1921, by Reverend George A Scheer, minister of St Mark's Reformed Church, in Philadelphia, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania. They had one child, Harry Frederic Ide, Junior, and also raised Laura's two children by her previous marriage, Mae Hafft and Bill Hafft.
