My name is Kevin Cullis, son of Kieth who is standing far right with the overcoat on. I know dad played for Manor, but can someone explain why he is not in a kit? Not sure if the previous question was answered, but the guy in front row with blonde hair, is Graham Lowing, who worked as reporter for a local paper. Also, guy at far left in ‘civvies’ is John WARD, not Astell. He was a good friend and family member of ours.
Editor: Thank you for the information Kevin.
Bob we will get there, you thought Graham is the missing name, you prompt me into surname Swanson or Simpson.
Terry Morgan is correct.
Terry M features in a Laindon Cricket Club photograph on this site and is named as Terry Morgan. I remember now the unknown player was a reporter, the name Graham keeps coming to mind.
I have spoken to my twin John and showed him our site, now I’m sure Bob can help here:
Back row is John Astle and Terry M? will have to contact my brother again but the unknown name is still unknown although he was an outsider from Battlesbridge who worked as a reporter for the Evening Echo.
