Miles Templeton is your man. He has the most extensive list of pre-war boxing records around (most of which are not on Boxrec).

His website is http://www.boxinghistory.org.uk/

You'll find his contact deals on their also.

If you have his name and want to find out his date and place of birth, fathers name etc, there are easier ways than looking for boxing records. PM his name and any info you have if you like and I might be able to help.
