Looks extremely useful.

I'm looking for a table like this, only showing various chronologies of the canon side by side. Is there one? Anybody have a link?

I wonder where they got the information on the life of Holmes prior to Study in Scarlet.

The biographical part of that table is Baring-Gould's.
Everyone should have a Holmes of their own

Exactly what I was looking for. Even one version in French!

Thanks for the links. I knew it must exist, only needed someone with the savvy to show me.

Les Klinger created this table as part of his research for his annotated volumes, I believe. It's a good resource.

That is from Bering-Gould. He made up the older brother based on Doyle's first take on Holmes' name, and because if Mycroft was the older brother of a country squire he would have inherited - in other words - he wouldn't be in government service.

I always found that a stretch.

BG also added the name William to Holmes name - and I'm not entirely sure why. I know some people who would know, however and I can find out.

Not sure why anyone would decide that there is more to his name than just Sherlock.

I don't know which came first, but in that movie where Roger Moore plays Holmes, Sherlock Holmes in New York, SH says his name is, unless I am very much in error, William Sherlock Scott Holmes. The significance comes when he has to find a boy named...







SPOILER AHEAD










Scott.

I remember I have seen somewhere that the reason why Mycroft and Sherlock must work to earn a living. It was because a decline of family property. It fits if Mycroft was the older brother and inherited just a small property.
A confederate who foresees your conclusions and course of action is always dangerous.
