I'll email your posting to Pete in Canada (Heaton lad), he might be able to help?

Lots of bad news these days :-(

Ken Waugh played for NUFC from 1952-56 making 7 appearances according to the figures on NUFC.com.

Softie, surely someone at NUFC will have some info on Ken Waugh's family, there must be a 'file' of some sort archived away somewhere?

Mick, myself and, Pete in C., have an old schoolmate who's VERY high in the police (Chief, I think of "Tyne & Wear"?), would you like me to contact him? I'm stuck here in Singapore but, I'm sure one of our local BBSers would make the necessary calls?

Mick,

Following Bud's suggestion, I will e-mail one of my contacts at the Club to see if they might be able to help.
If I get anything back from them I'll e-mail it to you.

Mick, why not drop a note to Niall (nial.mackenzie@nucf.com) or Biffa (biffa@nufc.com)? They often put a short obit in for any ex-Toon players (theee's one right now for coach John Pickering. As I'm sure you know, they have quite a wide-ranging following.
