Bread Basket, thank you, good advice. That is indeed the right Jimmy Brown.
The info that I know is:
- his father was Samuel Finlay Kitchener Crozier (adopted as Brown) born Castle Sq, Bangor, 9 Nov 1914. He had four young siblings, his mother died a month after he was born, and his father was a Sergeant in 5th RIR, hence the adoption.
- Samuel married Elizabeth McWilliams Crozier (!) born 12 Aug 1914, Spamount St, Belfast on 11 Dec 1933. I have unfortunately no idea where they lived/died.
- According to the boxing website Jimmy was born 22 Nov 1934. He boxed from 1955 - 1964, including a losing bout for the British Weatherweight Title in 1957, and won the NI Lightweight title the next year. He died in Yorkshire in Oct 1995, at the age of 60, and was described in his Belfast Telegraph obituary as a "Shore Road lad".
I don't know if Jimmy was an only child, or what family he had himself, but would be very grateful for any/all information. I'm a Grandson of Samuel's brother Walter Crozier.
Thank you.
