Hi! Folks,
Very long shot this but I'm wondering if anybody has stumbled across my Grandfather in old sports literature.
He was born Harold John Burton (known as Jack) in Handsworth in 1888 but a lot of his life was spent in Aston.
Apparently he was a well known local sportsman particularly in cricket and football.
With regard to the football we think that he may have played with a team called Aston Unity but I don't know where that information came from.
There was a pause in his local sporting activities when he served with the RAMC during WW1
