I've never seen this before; do people come on here trying to find their parents?

i found this site and ive been looking for 25 years now and people have lied to me all my life i have loads trying to find him

I know there was a British movie actor named Dickie Owen
who worked for Hammer Film Studios back in the 1960's.
(he did a couple of their Mummy movies)
born 1929
I dont know if he ever was a boxer.
As a matter of fact his background appears rather mysterious.

Is it just assumed that this Dave Owens was a professional boxer?
If he was an amateur only,
I doubt that his name would be here on boxrec,unless he bacame famous later.
Maybe you should try the British amateur boxers database,
unless he was a Yank visiting the UK during a tournament perhaps.

yes i saw this and my mum was 21 year old at the time am not sure about the age of him then but he was about 18 to 21 years old i know this is a werid one but he was nt a pro boxer i don t know much about him am on face book trying to find him and nothing

Its also possible that he may have fought pro under an alias.
Does the Dave Owens here have a father who had boxed
either amateur or profesionally?
