John Francis (“Frank”) Stanley Russell (1865–1931; 2nd Earl Russell from 1878), Russell’s older brother. Author of Lay Sermons (1902), Divorce (1912), and My Life and Adventures (1923). Russell remembered Frank bullying him as a child and as having the character and appearance of a Stanley, but also as giving him his first geometry lessons (Auto. 1: 26, 36). He was accomplished in many fields: sailor, electrician, house builder, pioneer motorist, local politician, lawyer, businessman and company director, and (later) constructive junior member of the second Labour Government. Frank was married three times. The first marriage involved serious legal actions by and against his wife and her mother, but a previous scandal, which ended his career at Oxford, had an overshadowing effect on his life (see Ruth Derham, “‘A Very Improper Friend’: the Influence of Jowett and Oxford on Frank Russell” [2017]). The second marriage was to Mollie Sommerville (see Ian Watson, “Mollie, Countess Russell” [2003]). The third was to Elizabeth, Countess von Arnim. Despite difficulties with him, Russell declared from prison: “No prisoner can ever have had such a helpful brother.” Biography: R. Derham, Bertrand’s Brother (2021).
