the Reluctant Beatle page 1 by ric gustafson
George Harrison was born on Feb 25 1943. George's parents were Harold and Louise . George's birthplace was Wavertree number 12 Arnold Grove. Today it is in private ownership. Fans from all over the world need to worship it from the outside pavement. Three other siblings were born in that house. A daughter named Louise. George had two brothers. Harry in 1934. Peter in 1940.
George's father registered his name. The Harrison home was a tiny mid terrace home. The house in Liverpool had two cramped rooms downstairs and two upstairs. Family life was spent in the back kitchen living room. This space was no more than ten feet by ten. There was only an iron grate for heating. The house did not have a bathroom or an indoor toilet.
George's father Harold Harrison was a First Class steward with the White Star Line. Then at the height of the Depression, he got a job as a driver of one of Liverpool's double deck buses. Unlike the other Beatles, George's upbringing was not marred by trauma.
