August 19, 1906
Mr. Tom Watson, secretary of the Liverpool Football Club was yesterday robbed of nearly £100 on Llandudno Pier. He went from Liverpool in the morning with his family for a day’s outing, and took the money which belonged to the club with him believing it would be safer than in a close-up house. He carried it in a bag in the pocket of his trousers, and missed it directly the steamer left Llandudno on the return passage.

Sorry Great Grandpa Tom Watson was robbed. What a bummer, even though it’s been nearly 107 years ago. They used to call him Owd Tom, as a term of endearment. 🙂
Hi Mercedes,
Welcome to the website. It must be great to have such a footballing hero on your family tree. I have added quite a lot of article about Tom, also one about his son and one about his wife as well.
Have you seen the page with the sketches of Tom between 1892 and 1915?
