Barrister. Married Sylvia (1866-1910), second daughter of George du Maurier. Their 3 eldest sons met J M Barrie in Hyde Park in 1897, and inspired his Peter Pan (1903). When their parents died tragically young, Barrie became the guardian of all 5 boys. Their story has been told in a biography and dramatised for television as J M Barrie and the Lost Boys and for the cinema as Finding Neverland. Two of the boys also died young – one in Flanders and the other bathing at Oxford. They are all buried near the du Maurier grave (I bay).
