This meant Jim and Lincoln would’ve been about 8 and 7. Their father took an axe – he did not hesitate. The 3 of them were made to put their thumbs on a tree stump used for chopping wood. They were taken outside just in their pyjamas in the middle of winter in the freezing cold weather. They were treated in a way that meant they were not allowed to like themselves at all and they weren’t allowed to be themselvesĮarly one morning their father dragged Jim, Lincoln and Charlie out of bed. The parents treated the 3 brothers as one entity. Now imagine how a small child would feel mentally not knowing who they really are. This is taking away the children’s identities. The 3 brothers, however, were never called by their own individual names by the parents. They would share everything from the same food to clothes, from the same bathwater to the same school friends. Jim, Lincoln and Charlie shared a bedroom. He was the 3rd son born in quick succession after Jim and Lincoln. I have included his 2 brothers’ names because it’s important to know how/what he and they were called and how they were treated.Ĭharles Adams Claverie was born on 28th August 1949 in Bangor in Maine.
WARNING: Some of you may find this difficult to read as the subjects covered are child abuse, mental health issues and suicide. He was clever, funny, multi- talented and always looking out for others. I have learnt that Charlie was a kind, sweet, softly spoken man who was very humble. The simple truth is that Charlie got so lost in his mind that he had shut out the outside world. Even on his last day he was still making plans. No-one had any idea that he was suffering on the inside. His suicide was a huge shock to his family and his friends. He was well loved and well respected by those closest to him. I have also learnt that he was a very good friend to those that knew him. In this day and age of celebrity some forget that celebrities are human beings, with human thoughts and feelings.Ĭharlie was a child, he was a brother, a husband, a father, a grandfather and an uncle. If anyone raises any objections as to why this should not be out for the public let me know your logical reasons.Ĭharlie Rocket was a human being. If I have made any mistakes, or you think I have got anything wrong let me know and let me know what the correct info should be……… Without those that knew Charlie and their comments and blogs all over the internet, aswell as my interaction with a few of them I wouldn’t have been able to piece together some of Charlie’s history. I have merely tried to piece it together. I could’ve said that Charlie did this or that or maybe the other but that would get so boring to read….Īny errors are entirely my own but some things are based on info gathered from various sources. ….there are holes in his story because, well quite simply, I don’t have all or enough info.
