Sir Charles Harper, Governor of St. Helena
Clicking on the name of Sir Charles Harper, Governor of St. Helena, 1925-1932, directs the reader to a biography of Charles Harper, an Australian Pastoralist, who died in 1912!

This is clearly incorrect and needs editing.

The correct Sir Charles Harper was born in Devon, England, and served for many years in the British Foreign and Colonial Service. He married Marjorie Ford and they had 2 children John and Faith. Sir Charles played Rugby for England. He served many years with the Colonial Service in Africa and was knighted for prevening a tribal war in the Gold Coast. He was then posted to be Governor of St. Helena and Ascension Island. He eventually retired to Oxford, England.

Sir Charles was my grandfather and I am obviously very keen that this mistake is straightened out. I do have a picture of him and can write a full biographical note and insert a photo of him in the next few weeks, as soon as I have gleaned the full facts.
