== Post Boxing Career and Death ==
'''Freddie Mills''' was a London night club owner in retirement, and a friend of the Kray brothers, [[Reg Kray|Reg]] and [[Ron Kray|Ronnie]], who were powerful crime figures in London, as well as former boxers. In 1948 he married Chrissie Broadribb, the daughter of (Ted Broadribb) and the former wife of fellow boxer [[Don McCorkindale]]. Freddie and Chrissie had two daughters: Susan and Amanda Mills. his father was Thomas Mills
Born: 1876
Walworth, LONDON his mother was,, Charlotte Clarke
Born: 1876
Lambeth, London
,,When Freddie Mills fought [[Len Harvey]] in 1942 they had to get special permission for a private airman to fight a sargant airman

View details

Mills was found dead, shot in the head, in London's Soho district. The police officially ruled the death a suicide. However, several theories arose, due in no small part to his relationship with the Krays. Some of the theories included:
*He had been arrested in a public toilet, and charged with homosexual indecency, and had killed himself.
*His suicide was staged by Chinese gangsters, who were after his club.
*He was the still unknown serial killer "Jack The Stripper," who had murdered eight prostitutes near the Thames River in London between 1958 and 1965, and that he had killed himself when he felt he was close to being caught.
