Biography of Billy Rimmer | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
 HERITAGE NO : 78 Billy was a good, local winger who showed great promise when he broke into the first team. He scored an impressive 12 tries in 22 outings which was a most creditable return in that era. Those matches resulted in 15 wins, 5 losses and one drawn game. Billy kept his position in a successful team for his short first team career. The 1901 Census had him residing in Speakman Road and his occupation was given as a blacksmith. In 1921 Billy was living in Reginald Road, St. Helens with his wife Rebecca, who hailed from St Helens, three daughters, one son and his father-in-law. He was a Contractor with the Wigan Iron and Coal Company but was currently unemployed. The 1939 Census shows Billy living in Reginald Road, St Helens and sadly by that time he was incapacitated. He died in St Helens in January 1951 aged 73. | ||||
