I know that this article needs cited references, but this sentence needs to be explained: '...after waiting three days for the licence to mature.' What license? Hopefully, someone who knows more about this topic will clean this up. SailorAlphaCentauri 16:04, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
Agnes Newton Keith's daughter, if born in the early fifties, would have four children by the age of 14 according to the information in Children of Allah. Agnes talks about visiting their daughter and her four children on trips back to Vancouver. The book was published in 1965. The math doesn't work. I am wondering if perhaps Harry was married previously and the daughter referred to was from a prior marriage? She never mentions her in the vignettes of her writing...

We have recently visited Agnes Keith House in Sandakan and were also intriqued by Jean Keith. On one information board, her birth date had been blanked out and on another it remained as 1927. She was shown as being the daughter of both Agnes and Harry but if they had not met between 1924 and 1934 and this birth date is correct, that cannot be the case. Adding to this, the birth date of 1927 tallies with her graduation date, which is clearly shown on the timeline in the exhibition (sorry, I can't remember what the date was but we calculated she was late teens as I recall). We wondered if either the above two hypotheses would be correct i.e. Harry's daughter by a previous relationship or adopted. It seems unusual that she is not mentioned in Agnes's book Three Came Home and yet was prominant in the exhibition at the house. 118.100.25.243 ( talk) 08:31, 18 January 2009 (UTC) Jill L 18 Jan 2009
Found this web site: Oak Bay Chronicles = http://oakbaychronicles.ca/?page_id=1628, this women has written this:
"Harry returned to North America in 1934 with his daughter and her amah (nursemaid).

I strongly feel that the book deserves a separate article from the film. each can have a plot summary, which of course will be slightly different. i dont like when an article on a film based on a notable book contains all the material which more properly belongs in the books article. they are two separately notable things, as is Ms. Keith.
