(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Sir Harold Walter Bailey, , who published as H. W. Bailey, was an English scholar of Khotanese, Sanskrit, and the comparative study of Iranian languages. Life Bailey was born in Devizes, Wiltshire, and raised from age 10 onwards on a farm in Nangeenan, Western Australia, without formal education. While growing up, he learned German, Italian, Spanish, Latin, and Greek from household books, and Russian from a neighbour.

By the time he had left home, he was reading Avestan as well.
