Uncle Sam was a merchant navy officer before going to Spain as part of the CP group. He is listed in the Hull Guildhall Plaque. Uncle Sam died in the 1970’s and rarely spoke of Spain. On his return and on the outbreak of the 2nd World War he moved to Cowden on the east yorkshire coast and spent his cash buying up food store as he thought that, as in Spain, food would be short. Uncle Sam was part of the Walters (Welsh roots) and Andrews family who were working class and politically active in the CP, LP and Co-op movement and in the T&G union on the fish dock and docks. There are still a lot of us around. If anyone wants more information on Uncle Sam pleasae let me know and I will do what I can. We are very proud of him. This is the first time that I have been able to get specific information on him. This seem to be due in part to the number of sites dealing the the American figher and phototgraper of the same name.
