Hallam, 2nd Baron Tennyson

Henry Herschel Hay Cameron (1852 - 1911)

RA Collection: Art

Hallam Tennyson was Alfred and Emily's first child. He was born on the 11 August 1852 and named after Arthur Henry Hallam, Alfred's close college friend, whose early death had occasioned the poem 'In Memoriam'. Hallam was educated at Marlborough and later Trinity College, Cambridge. He married Audrey Boyle in 1884. Hallam became his father's secretary, taking up many duties which ill health prevented his mother from continuing. On his father's death in 1892, he began to compile a memoir, 'Alfred Lord Tennyson; a Memoir by his Son' which was later published in 1897.
