Posted on behalf of Denis Harrison - [email protected] Please reply to Denis directly, not the list - thank you, Dave Denis' original request for information is added to end of e-mail Who`s Who 1943 Charles Harrison Family connection with the stage for many years, he (Charles) acted little boys parts in several plays, once in a dramatisation of Oliver Twist in which Sir Henry Irving, Toole and Brough played the principal characters. He married Harriet Sheppard in 1880 and they had four children, two girls Mabel & Peggy & two boys, names not known. One of the daughters may have gone on the stage. He may have been an "Angel" to productions in later life. His main occupation was as cartoonist/carricaturist, publications:- As illustrator - Master Charlie by S.H Namer, Accidents Will Happen in collaboration with W.K. Hasledon, The Swoop by P.G. Woodhouse, History Retold, London Japanned Verses & Pictures & Six plays for children. His club was London Sketch. He worked for Sir Arthur Pearson, Pearson Publictions, and assisted him with raising money for the founding of "St Dunstans" for the blind. That is all I have for now . Regards, Denis Harrison. 1202 hrs BST 18/05/01. ****Original message**** I am looking for information for family history research on the family name Harrison. My great uncle Charles Harrison born abt 1860 and died in 1943 was stated in Whos Who to have been a child actor before becoming a famous cartoonist/carricaturist, the entry states "he was a child actor and came from a theatrical family". I have information on his artistic career but do not know of his theatrical activities. I believe he played a child part with a famous actor in the 1860`s plus. Hope you can help me.
