John Lawrence Toole, comedian 1830-1906. Wednesday, 5 January 2011. Interestingly the University of Aberdeen claims to have a photo of John as a boy.

jltoole: Toole's name
http://jltoole.blogspot.com/2011/01/whats-in-name.html
John Lawrence Toole, comedian 1830-1906. Thursday, 6 January 2011. Throughout our own lives we are all called many names, properly or otherwise. John Lawrence Toole is of course just the same. However what is interesting to me is that his stage names changes. He seemed to be referred to a Johnny in Australia and New Zealand. There are of course occasions for misspellings of his name. Sometimes Johnnny is spelled as "Johnnie." His middle name, Lawrence is sometimes misspelled as Laurence.
