Thanks to historian/archivist Miles Templeton I've lately been able to flesh out the ring record of Airdrie Scotland's Dan McGoldrick who fought from about 1913 to 1928. We've added almost twenty bouts to his record.
I'm looking to find a photo of McGoldrick the heavyweight. He had a son Dan who boxed during the 1930s. I'm also trying to dig up physical details, like height and reach and average ring weight.
If anyone here enjoys haunting newspaper archives in UK libraries, I'd be interested to see what you could find in the Glasgow papers for Feb 16, 1914 and June 10, 1916. The only thing I know for sure is in 1928 he was a stone lighter, 4 inches shorter and 20 years older than Bobby Shields.
