I am the great grandson of Otto Henry Simon Harcourt and find some of your comments interesting, in particular the comments about Hannah Harcourt (Russell) as I have not been able to establish any connection here so would be great if you can share your documentation in this regard and any children from this marriage.

Extra info

When Otto Harcourt lived in 18 Randolph Road in Middlesex he was married to my great grandmother Isabella Leonora Harcourt formerly de-Lisle.

My grandad Norman was born to them in 1877 and died in Johannesburg South Africa in 1955.
