1943, February 24 George Harrison is born at 12 Arnold Grove, Wavertree, Liverpool, England. He is the youngest of four children. Although February 25 is the date traditionally observed as Harrison's birthday, George told "Billboard" magazine in December 1992 that his birthday is actually February 24, something he had only recently become aware of. Apparently George was born shortly before midnight, but his birth certificate incorrectly states that he was born after midnight, on the 25th.


1943, February 25 1946 - July
Freddie Lennon, John's father, returns and takes the five-year-old John to Blackpool for a holiday. Freddie tries to persuade his young son to leave England with him. John is placed in the position of having to choose between his mother and his father -- he chooses to stay with his Aunt Mimi so he can be close to his mother, Julia.





WELCOME TO THE EARLY YEARS

1957

June 9

The Quarry Men audition for "Mr. Star-Maker", Carroll Levis, at one of Levis' "TV Star Search" shows which he puts on all over Britain. Unfortunately, The Quarry Men fail to make it past the first round of competition, losing out to the Sunnyside Skiffle Group.


June 22

June 22, 1957 The Quarry Men play from the back of a parked coal truck on Rosebery St., Liverpool, during street celebrations marking the 750th anniversary of King John's issuance of a charter for the settling and development of Liverpool. A group of toughs from Hatherley St. threaten to beat up the group, especially "that Lennon", but the Quarry Men beat a hasty retreat when their performance is over, avoiding a fight. Rosebery St. wins newspaper awards for best-decorated street outside of the city center. The Rosebery St. residents celebrate with a second party, but the Quarry Men aren't invited back for a second appearance. [Note: Mark Lewisohn reports this event on June 22, as does Allen Wiener, but Ray Coleman gives the date of May 24.
