ASK YOUR GRANDAD

As before for the 1973-74 season there were a few Christian names missing from scorers that season below is for season 1959-60, the first season of the Combination League.

Can you, your fathers, or grandfathers help?

The teams are listed and you will see for some we have an initial letter and for some we are at a blank.

Cheers

Mike, are you sure it's Dennis? I'm led to believe it's Dai Williams. Also for Falmouth, Mike Rees.

Nanpean: A. Bullock

St Breward is the Rev John Leach, the Methodist Minister for the district.

Porthleven could be Andy Angove who played for Illogan in the 70s. There's a reference in 1960/61 for "Trixie" Rawlings. I'm guessing the Rowlands for Porthleven and Culdrose is the same person.

The St Dennis player's surname is Maddern.

In 1960/61, St Dennis had a player called Hore. I believe this is John Hore the Argyle legend as he was born near St Dennis.

Just spoke to Father, (Ernie Mills), and he goes with;

Helston.

Jock Campbell

Ivor Pethick

Cresswell Thomas

Porthleven.

Antony Angove

Colin Bennets (center forward)

St Dennis

Possibly Peter Crick (also played for Bugle and Newquay if correct)

Apparently Nanpean were some side at the time.

If any more names come to him over the next decade, I will post as and when!
