Frederick Dickens

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Frederick Dickens (1820 – 1868) was Charles Dickens' younger brother, who lived with Charles when he moved on to Furnival's Inn in 1834. Fred was later imprisoned for debt, and spent the last years of his life as an alcoholic. When he died at age 48, Charles lamented Fred's "wasted life". He is buried in Darlington in the North-East of England, within the grounds of the town's West Cemetery.
