Jack Dormand - Haswell Cricket Club - Haswell
Photograph of a man identified as Jack Dormand wearing cricket whites and standing in front of cricket stumps ready to bat; he is also wearing glasses; behind him is a fence and behind that what appears to be the roof of a building; the photograph is described asJack Dormand, Haswell Cricket Club
Date: 1937
I assume you are aware of who this is? It is of course John Donkin Dormand (1919 - 2003) who succeeded Manny Shinwell as MP for Easington, rose to become Labour Chief Whip and eventually went into the House of Lords as Lord Dormand of Easington. He was born at Haswell, educated at Wellfield A J Dawson Grammar School as well as other illustrious seats of learning such as Oxford University. The date of 1937 would seem to be correct as he would then be 18.
