Bert Taylor, my great grandfather, any information or pictures would be gratefully received. ThanksNot sure if this pic from Carls Brum has been on before.![]()
HI my name Is Keith Reuben, my father was Percy Reuben he was an amateur boxer in the 40s and 50s, 2 of his brothers Dave Reuben and Joe Reuben were both Professionals and they all knew lots of people around the birmingham area associated with boxing. I have a bit of dads memorabilia of his boxing, i have heard dad talk of several boxers one being Bert Taylor. I have looked through some of it and found a boxing bill from 1941 with B Taylors name on it. It was at castle bromwich sports and social club. The now Jaguar factory where strangely enough i work. I enjoy reading anything associated with old birmingham boxers a it was in the family. Im not saying this is the same B Taylor but dad used to talk about him a lot when he talked about boxing. I have scanned the bill. hope it is to do with what you are looking for. KeithHi Emmie, I have sent the picture to my grandad who is Bert's son, I'm awaiting to hear back from him about the age of this picture. To be honest it's my mom who could do with talking to people about my great grandad as she's the historian who has done her family tree. I know she'd love to talk to anyone about zoetrope Taylor. From the bxonb records I've seen, Bert fought your grandfather a fair bit!!
