Frederick Edward Harry

Frederick Edward Harry was an absolutely amazing personality.  So amazing that I've decided to write a book about him.  I've put together a mass of information, and have a great idea of the life he led and the views he had, using newspaper articles, books, minutes of meetings, and personal letters.  It is really interesting to examine someone's life in depth and try to analyse it through looking at the social and political situation at the time.  I'm finding the research really good fun!  I'd originally thought it could be completed by June 2014 - which would mark the 150th anniversary of his birth! But there is so much information and so many things to do in preparation, that this timeframe was always going to be a pipe dream. Hopefully soon...

Relationship to SNR = Great-great-grandfather.
