Yes. Alice Liddell lived from 4 May 1852 until 16 November 1934 and was known for most of her life by her married name, Alice Hargreaves.

She is famous for having inspired Lewis Carroll's book Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.

Was Alice from the book Alice's Adventures in Wonderland based on a real person?

Alice in Wonderland was inspired by, and originally written for a little girl named Alice Liddell. Alice was the daughter of Henry Liddell who was the Dean of Christ Church College, where Lewis Carroll worked.However, the illustrations which Carroll drew for the hand-written manuscript do not resemble Alice Liddell and, in his later life, Carroll said that his fictional Alice was not based on any real person.But there are connections with the real Alice. The poem in Through the Looking Glass, A Boat Beneath a Sunny Skyis an acrostic in which the first letter of each line spells out Alice Liddell's full name.Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is set on May 4, which was Alice Liddell's birthday, while Through the Looking Glass is set precisely six months later, on November 4. In that book Alice says that she is "seven and a half exactly."It is also said that the events surrounding the caucus-race, in which Alice, the Duck the Dodo and several other creatures find themselves soaking wet is a reference to a real event in which Carroll, Alice and some friends and relations went boating together and were all drenched in a downpour of rain.So the fictional Alice is certainly inspired by Alice Liddell, but the extent to which she is based on her may be debatable.
