    My mum is the daughter to this man and has many old pictures of him in his rugby uniform. I have also grown up in Swinton having been told what a legend he was. Now I am older I would like to know more about my grandfather, Billo the man. Does anybody have information about him?

    I take it you are aware that Billo's brother, Joseph (1893-1950), played rugby union for Amman Utd, Swansea, and Wales (12 caps, from 1920-24).

    My father said he was one of the best play-makers and footballers he ever saw. Dad watched the Lions when they were playing at Chorley Rd, and followed them avidly until he died in1985.

    My grandfather was Billo's and Joseph's brother, his name was Nathan, however my grandfather saddly passed before I was born. Amman United RFC wrote a book about rugby families in the area and my father wrote the chapter about the Rees family. I could send you details.
