In anticipation of the Annual Dinner two weeks hence, I had my
occasional flip through the fascinating website and determined to help
on the list of names where information was sought. I can help on the
following and no doubt other OBs, hopefully inspired by my email, may do
likewise and bring you much more up to date:

Brian F Bilsborough - died all too young in Canada before 1978
(mentioned again much further down the list).
G B MIddleton emigrated to Canada by 1980s
Eric Whittle - died years ago whilst still on the teaching staff of QEGS
and a South Ribble magistrate.
Fred Mapley - died over 20 years ago.
Richard Myers - London and friend still in contact with David Swindlehurst.
M KIrby - attended last year's dinner.
A E Fazackerley - prolific letter writer to LEP from an address in
Penwortham.
C D Bishop - Education officer with Cumbria County Council and retired
there.
J F Bamber - solicitor on the staff of H M Land Registry at Lytham where
he lives in retirement.
L CLayton - just found for Larry Taylor
A R Hayes - living in East Lancashire
John Monk - ran an engineering business in Lostock Hall.
Alan H Penswick - ran a small garden centre near Nog Tow. Died over 20
years ago.
John C Betts lives in South Wales - last known as Secretary of world
famous Welsh Male Voice Choir.
A John Till - retired school teacher living in Shrewsbury still in
contact with former teaching colleague at King Edward V11, Lytham.
W B Jackson - Brian Saul will help.
Frank Gittings - died many years ago - all too young.
Paul Earnshaw - retired solicitor who practised in St Annes.
K Sweetman - died over 20 years ago whilst serving in Lancashire
Constabulary.
David Houlder - Schoolmaster and brilliant organist last known at Leeds
Parish Church which has an outstanding musical pedigree.

These have all been extracted in order from the published list.

Good luck,

Alan

Hi Alan, It's very interesting to know what has happened to old friends. Sadly far too many have died I can add Eric Woof, Donald Ashton, Frank Taylor,Tony Holmes Charlie Carling and Stan Yates just from my class also aland Bayly. At least we're keeping well Alan and looking forward to another bowling season. Kind regards Brian

ALAN,
What a good idea!  I'll do the same when I have a moment - at present in Osaka, Japan on business and pretty hectic with 'x' number of trips up to Tokyo next week. Hopefully, return in time for the Dinner, see you there!
My best : JOHN MW.
