PIER STREET GLENELG
With thanks to Clive, Clive attended the showing of the Somerton Man film in Glenelg last night and it was there that Professor Abbott revealed the name of "Mr. Francis". As you can see his name was Dr. Douglas Buxton Hendrickson of Pier Street Glenelg. Professor Abbott stated that the information was given to him by Gerry Feltus who as 99% certain that this was the man given the pseudonym "Mr. Francis"
Clive has started the research and thus far has turned up the following news article from "The News" 4 Dec 1946:
This post is a joint effort from Clive, Pete Bowes at Toms By Two and myself here at the Tamamshud blog.
