My three great-uncles were boxers in the 30s and 40s in Croydon. Jimmy, John and Billy Toohig. If anyone has heard of them or could tell me anything at all I would be very grateful.

My grandad was Albert finch I think he may of known the toohigs as he was also a boxer from Croydon. He became British middleweight champion. I think they worked together on the markets to as my grandad was a butcher.

Jonny Toohig was my granddad. I've recently met some of the old boxers that knew him, including Dennis Read, Buster Gaffney and the son of a toast master who introduced the boxers by the sure name of Hearn.
