Errol Flynn
Errol Leslie Thomson Flynn (20 June 1909 – 14 October 1959〔) was an Australian-American actor.〔Obituary ''Variety'', 21 October 1959, pg. 87.〕 He was known for his romantic swashbuckler roles in Hollywood films.
==Early life==
Flynn was born in Hobart, Tasmania, where his father, Theodore Thomson Flynn, was a lecturer (1909) and later professor (1911) of biology at the University of Tasmania. Flynn was born at the Queen Alexandra Hospital in Battery Point. His mother was born Lily Mary Young, but dropped the first names Lily Mary shortly after she was married and changed her name to Marelle.〔Flynn always calls her Marelle in his autobiography.〕 Flynn described his mother's family as ''"seafaring folk"''〔Flynn, ''My Wicked, Wicked Ways'', p. 33.〕 and this appears to be where his lifelong interest in boats and the sea originated. Despite Flynn's claims,〔 the evidence indicates that he was not descended from any of the Bounty mutineers. Married at St. John's Church of England, Birchgrove, Sydney, on 23 January 1909,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Flynn, Errol Leslie (1909–1959) )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=imdb.com )〕 both of his parents were native-born Australians of Irish, English and Scottish descent.〔Flynn, ''My Wicked, Wicked Ways'', p. 25.〕
After early schooling in Hobart, from 1923 to 1925 Flynn was educated at the South West London College, a private boarding school in Barnes, London,〔Bardrick, Ajax (2008) 'Errol Flynn's Barnes Period', published by 'the-vu'〕 and in 1926 returned to Australia to attend Sydney Church of England Grammar School (''Shore School'')〔Moore, John Hammond: "Young Errol Flynn before Hollywood", 1975; ISBN 0-207-13158-9〕 where he was the classmate of a future Australian prime minister, John Gorton. He concluded his formal education with being expelled from Shore for theft,〔Moore, John Hammond 'The Young Errol Flynn Before Hollywood' (2nd Edition, 2011), Trafford Publishing〕 and—according to his own account—having been caught in a romantic assignation with the school's laundress.〔 After being dismissed from a job as a junior clerk with a Sydney shipping company for pilfering petty cash, he went to Papua New Guinea at the age of eighteen, seeking and failing to find his fortune in tobacco planting and metals mining. He spent the next five years oscillating between the New Guinea frontier territory and Sydney.〔
