1. More familiar when 25 years older (still bearded)

2. As famous as Galsworthy in his day and wrote similarly. Probably best known now for supposedly popularising a boy's name

Is No 1 No 2 is probably the least well-known now but he was a huge seller in his day of family sagas and stuff. He has a very famous ancestor, also a writer with nearly the same name.

Nope - a contemporary of Galsworthy. He died during the war. His best-remembered novel was filmed with Marius Goring.

Though you do have enough information to start working out the connection.
