Alfred D'Orsay Tennyson Dickens, the sixth child and fourth son of Charles and Catherine Dickens, was named after the soon-to-be English poet laureate and the French dandy who served as his godfathers.
His fourth son, twenty-year-old Alfred D’Orsay Tennyson Dickens, migrated to Australia in 1865; followed by his tenth and youngest child, sixteen-year-old Edward Bulwer Lytton Dickens in 1869. Dr Lansbury sharply observes, “a country where mediocrity would rise triumphant was the ideal place to send two of his more unpromising sons”.
