Lisburn Exiles Forum

(Site is no longer operational pending a major long overdue overhaul of the entire website. Thank you for your patience. Site should still be visible and searchable for old posts.)

The Lisburn Exiles Forum is dedicated to the memory of James Goddard Collins (The Boss) who single-handedly built LISBURN.COM (with a lot of help from many contributors) from 1996 to 29th November 2012. This website was his passion and helping people with a common interest in the City of Lisburn around the world is his lasting legacy.

Re: Lisburn Silver Band 1950/51

Hi Lucy, Was your Nan's name Helen??, if so I am pretty sure she was in my class at the Central School. Her brother Jackie was a few years older than me and although I met and associated with some RUR men in Kure Japan who were recovering from wounds received in the Korean war was never lucky enough to meet up with Jack. I believe he was killed in the night action when over 100 RUR men were lost. Best Wishes. Mauri

I've been told Jackie posed for a statue somewhere also before he was killed so I'm always trying to find out about this!
