Me neither. There appears to be no birth or information for anyone in that name.
There is an Anthony Harris on the 1901 census born in Middx. living in Herts but unsure as to whether it is him or not.

Anthony Harris age 6 son of Henry and Laura born New Southgate Middlesex. Living in East Barnet Herts. He has a sister Amelia 8, brothers Thomas 13 and Walter 10. His mother is 41 and his Father is 42. Mother is noted as Ann Laura.
