Alan Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Has anyone any knowledge of Vic Burrows? He'll be 73 by now. We were quite close in the 50s and 60s, both lived in Harris Street; both attended Cowley and then Sheffield Uni from '60 to '63 where we lived in the same digs in Rupert Road. Last heard of Vic in about 1971. He had just started at Triplex and I was leaving Triplex to come north to Cumbria. His dad was quite famous in ballroom circles in St Helens as Sylvester Burrows who along with his wife were dancing champs and ran classes in Coop ballroom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phyll Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Hi Alan, I found some info. I wonder if his Dad is still alive? According to the links he would be 97, have a look at these. http://ukdatacentre.co.uk/person/3714182/Mr+Sylvester+Burrows http://www.checkcompany.co.uk/director/657134/MR-SYLVESTER-BURROWS http://britishphonebook.com/search.php?last=Burrows&city=St%20Helens,%20Merseyside,%20Ha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Posted February 24, 2016 Author Share Posted February 24, 2016 Made an inspired guess that he'd moved to Wigan and found him in the the Wigan phone list. Had a good old natter with him for the first time in fifty odd years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
