Early Harlands
These are the earliest records we have of the Harland family.
James Harland, Yeoman and member of the Episcopal Church, was born about
the year 1625 in the "Bishoprick, nigh Durham, England," and is the
earliest paternal ancestor known to the first in America bearing the
name Harlan. He lived and died an Englishman, and was buried upon
English soil. Tradition says that the name of
his father was William. That James Harland was married according to the
usages of the Established Church there is no doubt. That his children
were baptized and recorded therein is fully established by the fact that
the earliest record we have of his son, George, is that he was "Baptised
at the Monastery of Monkwearmouth in Oald England" [Note:
Monkwearmouth Monastery was founded by Benedict Biscop in the year A.D.672. It is situated in a town of the same name in the east division of
Chester in County Durham and is one-half mile north of Sunderland. It
receives its name from its location near the mouth of the river Wear.
Burned and plundered time and again, only the tower and some detached
parts of the church remain of the once celebrated monastery. In 1790 the parish registers, with the exception of some of the late records,
were destroyed by fire, and it is very probable that information of untold value to us perished in the flames. Source: Harlan Family Genealogy, p. 2, Alpheus H. Harlan

Building the Titanic
Harland and Wolff Heavy Industries workers 'knocking off' or finishing their work day building massive ships in Belfast, Northern Ireland. The most notorious ship that was built by this Harland and Wolff (which still exists today) was the RMS Titanic.
If you look closely you can see the RMS Titanic in the background. It is amazing how many workers and builders it took to create such massive ships. Harland and Wolff employed 15,000 workers at the time, working on the Titanic and her sister ship, the Olympic. These were the largest ships to be constructed at that time. The Titanic's hull was laid down on on 31 March 1909. Due to last minute design changes, work took longer than expected and the Titanic's first sea trial took place on April 2nd, 1912.
