Mr & Mrs Paul Crosfield

Categories: Benefactor

Countries: Greece

Our picture shows Paul Crosfield as a young boy at the Highgate tennis fete in 1931. We think it highly likely that Paul is son of Sir Arthur but can't prove it.

2016: Via Facebook William Tell informs us that "Paul was born Paul Homer in Athens and came to live with his cousin, Sir Arthur's wife. Sir Arthur adopted him and he changed his name."
