Charles
John
Huffam
Dickens
was
born
on
7th
of
February
1812
to
John
and
Elizabeth
Dickens
.
Charles
was
the
second
child
of
eight
in
all
,
six
of
whom
survived
to
adulthood
.
John
,
a
naval
clerk
,
always
beyond
his
means
.
One
day
he
pointed
out
a
house
to
Charles
,
remarking
that
he
could
in
such
a
house
,
if
he
worked
hard
.
The
family
moved
to
London
in
1822
.
At
12
,
as
the
family
worsened
,
Charles
had
to
start
working
in
a
blacking
factory
,
labelling
bottles
for
eleven
hours
a
day
.
John
Dickens
was
eventually
sent
to
a
debtors'
.
Charles
visited
him
there
every
Sunday
.
His
youth
left
him
with
an
drive
.
In
1827
he
began
work
as
a
solicitor´s
clerk
.
From
the
surroundings
of
his
unremarkable
office
he
began
to
collect
names
and
characteristics
of
the
people
he
saw
.
Charles
began
a
career
in
1831
.
Writing
became
his
passion
,
working
for
the
paper
by
day
and
on
his
own
work
by
night
.
He
was
beginning
to
taste
success
.
His
first
piece
of
was
published
in
1835
.
That
same
year
Charles
met
Catherine
Hogarth
,
they
fell
in
love
and
were
married
.
The
next
few
days
of
activity
resulted
in
much
writing
and
many
children
.
As
his
writing
became
more
popular
and
his
fame
more
widespread
,
began
to
abound
of
his
drunkenness
and
admission
to
an
asylum
.
Stories
were
easy
to
concoct
about
the
writer
who
kept
a
pet
raven
and
whose
writing
dwelt
in
the
extremes
of
the
sentimental
and
the
grotesque
.
In
1842
Charles
and
Catherine
set
for
America
.
On
landing
in
Boston
they
were
mobbed
by
.
Dickens´
interest
lay
in
visiting
the
unusual
,
which
inspired
his
writing
.
He
took
his
whole
family
on
his
next
big
,
to
Italy
,
in
the
summer
of
1844
.
Upon
his
return
,
dickens
began
to
look
for
new
diversions
.
He
helped
to
start
and
edit
a
radical
,
founded
a
refuge
for
homeless
women
and
his
works
at
public
readings
.
Aged
44
,
Charles
bought
Gads
Hills
,
the
house
his
father
had
pointed
out
to
him
all
those
years
before
.
It
symbolized
the
pinnacle
of
.
Whilst
Dickens
was
organizing
a
theatrical
project
,
the
frozen
deep
,
he
met
and
was
spellbound
by
a
young
actress
Ellen
Ternan
.
There
is
much
speculation
about
this
that
caused
the
end
of
his
marriage
to
Catherine
.
One
fateful
night
in
1865
,
whilst
Charles
and
Ellen
were
returning
from
Paris
their
train
outside
Staplehurst
.
Dickens
administered
brandy
and
water
to
the
and
dying
.
Only
at
the
last
minute
did
he
remember
to
retrieve
the
final
part
of
Our
Mutual
Friend
from
the
wrecked
.
The
incident
left
Charles
very
shaken
.
For
a
while
he
maintained
his
itinerary
,
then
his
health
began
to
fail
.
At
home
on
Wednesday
9th
June
1870
,
at
the
age
of
58
Charles
suffered
a
and
died
.
He's
buried
in
Westminster
Abbey
.
