Date of birth

I've reverted his date of birth to 1907, as per Terry Frost (IBSN 0-907969-38-0) . However, I concede it's not always correct. The link provided does not meet WP:RS but it may be that it is correct. Another source may need to be found. Peanut4 (talk) 21:02, 27 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

My Grandfather Sammy Hamilton, who was Uncle Bobby's younger brother was born 1924, so I think 1907 is more likely than 1903, we dont think that there was a 21 year gap between them. Also Newry Town reference Uncle Bobby being 20 in 1927 when he was selected to play for The Irish League Representative Team at Windsor Park. 2A00:23C6:1AE1:701:2003:7B5F:C5F:4B55 (talk) 12:05, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
