Who is Charlie Chaplin long-lost twin brother?

Not twin, but half-brother. He was called Wheeler Dryden, and he was living in India when he realized that this new international (because silent) filmstar was his brother. He wrote to him at the studio, but the secretaries thought it was just another begging letter and binned it. He tried again, this time writing to Edna Purviance, a close colleague and lover of Chaplin. She had a feeling it was genuine, and suggested that Charlie should investigate. Charlie discovered that the story was true, and was most interested in meeting the brother he had never heard of. He gave him a job in the studio, and an acting part in Limelight. Wheeler Dryden died in 1957.
