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.

Thank you for telling me that. I didn't know. I've been out of town and just got back today. AC and his brother Billy were historians when it came to telling about Hawkshaw and the people that lived there. My uncle died two months ago and he was a great source about Pensacola History. AC never met a stranger, to know him was to love him. A great loss to the people that knew him.
