Frigbo My Dad tells me Fred had a brother who rode but I know Fred was born in London and understand he is now living in NZ!

Hi to everyone who replied - thanks so much for all that information - spoke to my Dad (he is in his 80s now and memory not so good!) he remembers seeing Fred riding 'matches' at New Cross but I misunderstood and thought he rode for New Cross! Many thanks everyone, most appreciated! Linda

Hi After conversations with my Uncle I have found out the following: The Pawson we are looking for was Ernie - a relation to Fred (not sure if he was a brother or a cousin) - his nickname - not sure whether it was just a family nickname - was 'Boy' - Fred rode for Haringey and was the 2nd string to the World Champion in 1950(?). He had to give up riding as he had a cinder go thru his goggles into his eye. My Uncle seems that Boy helped Fred get his rides in the early day's in Eastbourne! Sorry for confusion - hope you are not as confused as me!!! Many thanks Linda
