Robert Barr was born in Glasgow, Scotland on the 16th September 1849. Five years later the family emigrated to a farm near Muirkirk in Upper Canada. Although a number of his crime novels and short stories are parodies on Sherlock Holmes and other best-selling detectives of the time, he also wrote short stories across a whole range of subjects and genres usually with intriguing ideas and many laced with wit and humour.

Leonora Rowley was born in Nottingham in 1904, although some sources cite 1905. In September 1914 the famed British humourist P G Wodehouse married her mother, Ethel, and consequently legally adopted the young Leonora. Leonora Wodehouse died on the 16th May 1944 after undergoing minor gynaecological surgery. A German bombing raid near her hospital had overwhelmed it with casualties. Sadly no one was able to respond to her calls for attention to stem her post-op bleeding. She was 39.
