Henry Andrade Harben

Their son was the politician and supporter of women's suffrage, Henry Devenish Harben.

[5] He was a Moderate Party member of the London County Council, first elected to represent Paddington (South) in 1898[3] and re-elected twice, retaining his seat until 1907.

[7] Around 1888, Harben began to compile a new edition of John Stow's Survey of London (1598) but progress was very slow and that objective was abandoned after C.L.

Kingsford's new edition of Stow appeared in 1908 and Harben decided to turn his book into a dictionary of London instead.

[1] His address at the time of his death was Newland Park, Chalfont St. Peter, Buckinghamshire, and Hertfordshire.
