| Liverpool College alums who have gone AWOL |
Inspired by a question raised by David Pitts (Selwyn, 1950), The Admins at The Lerpoolians agreed to launch a "Where are they now?" column on our website.
Today, if you want to connect with a family member or a friend, you can email, instant message, or call them. Some devices and mobile apps include a feature that shows, based on GPS coordinates, where your friends are so that you know their exact location. But for our predecessors, when a person travelled, moved, or emigrated, the wait to hear word from them could take months or even years. If something tragic happened, no one may be any the wiser.
To kickstart this idea, David supplies a list of names, all from Selwyn's and spread from VIth form down to 3B. These alums would be, assuming they all undertook A-Levels between approximately 1951 and 1957, at least 80 years old now.
| Ison, R.J | Robertson, E.A | Milton, J |
| Dunn, P.G | Meredith, G.D | Darlington, R.D. |
| Robinson, J.S | Cannell, D.F | Hughes, D.V |
| Willett, D or R.D. | German, M.J | Firth, P.E |
| Tunnington, E.B. | Street, D.F | Babbs, R.C |
| Dale, K.J |
But what of our younger alums? What about those who left anytime between the 1960s and the 2010s?
Here we supply a list of names, taken randomly from The Lerpoolians records, for whom we have but a name and no other details. Can you help?
