There was a couple of matches in Derry in 51 and 52, showing a Des Jons and Des Johnson, who I originally thought might be Dave, however Des Johnson popped up in N.I. In '54, when the 'Greenwich Adonis' was ensconced in the States.

So, far from comprehensive, no '47, where did he get to in '52, as he was well and truly established as part of the British wrestling scene. If he had decided to chase the Yankee dollar in'53, where is his name on the bills and programs, for the best part of '52. Did he have a business (gym or health centre) and devoted time to seeing that everything was running smoothly, so he could flit off overseas for eighteen months (as we're led to believe)? If that was the case,surely he could have wrestled on a part time basis, even if it was local to home?

We know he stayed overseas for the best part of four years. Did he return home,ever?
