Alice Liddell
Alice Pleasance Liddell (/ˈlɪdəl/; 4 May 1852 – 16 November 1934) inspired the children's classic Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll (Charles Lutwidge Dodgson), when she asked him to tell her a story on a boating trip in Oxford. The character of the fictional Alice may not be based on her, however—it's a controversial question. Relations between the Liddell family and Dodgson continue to provoke speculation—including, in late twentieth century biography, allegations that Dodgson took an unhealthy interest in the child.Liddell married the cricketer Reginald Hargreaves, and they had three sons.
