Everyone-thank you for your prompt answers. I was thinking it was George Lockwood, but I wasn't sure. What prompted my query is an article in the upcoming Pensacola Historical Society magazine. Information from an oral history states that "a boxer named Bulter and the Lockwood brothers, one of whom was Pensacola's first casualty of World War II." On line, I had found copies of the Army and Navy casualties of the war and George Lockwood was listed. I did not find a Butler from Pensacola who was listed as killed in the war. I need to clarify this statement before the article is finished. I want to thank everyone who came to my rescue. The Pensacola's genealogists are the greatest!

I did an interview with AC Cutts for the FootPrints and AC told of George Lockwood being the first casuality of WW 11 . George was from Hawkshaw. AC's brother Billy Boxed with the Lockwood Brothers, along with other Pensacla Youth. My uncle being one of the Boxers as well. Boxing matches were held over at the Casino on the beach. AC knew the Lockwoods personally. AC Cutts can tell you if the family is still around Pensacola. I think that they are.
